Description

Currently most of the code snippets in official docs are written in classes.
I'm learning React hooks and would like to see examples more functional oriented.

Since you are planning to continue to support classes in the future, a switch option between classes and hooks in each code snippet in official docs would be nice.

Research direction

Start by locating the react.dev documentation code-snippet implementation and reviewing how the existing class-based examples are organized. Determine the scope of supporting both class and Hooks versions across official snippets; done means each applicable snippet can switch between the two representations without disrupting the documentation.
