Descripción
Hello! 👋
This is my first contribution to the React Documentation, and I first wanted to say how much I love the documentation. I find the language style used throughout it to be simple, accessible, and therefore easy to follow.
As I was going through the documentation this weekend, I made my way from State and Lifecycle to Using the State Hook. In the former article, I noted the following piece of information, which I thought was an important detail about updating state.
Meanwhile, in the "Component Class Equivalent" section in the latter document, I noticed this code example did not use a function to update state using the previous state value.
I found this confusing. The point above about accommodating a possibly asynchronous state update seemed critical to ensure deterministic behaviour. I was surprised to see the code here (and throughout other parts of this article) not using a function to update the state value synchronously.
There may be a few reasons why this was done in my mind.
- The example is small/trivial enough that using a function versus a direct update does not make a major difference.
- This is a minor implementation detail not relevant to the usage of the state hook.
It's also possible I may have just misunderstood this example. I believe though that is not only inconsistent, but also makes the function component and class component inequivalent, because the original is completely synchronous, whereas the latter contains some potentially asynchronous behaviour.
Of course this is easily fixed by converting a line like
this.setState({ count: this.state.count + 1 })
to
this.setState((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })
I'm writing this first and foremost with the intention to clear up confusion that I experienced, and that others may as well. But I also want to ensure that my thinking is correct here!

Línea de trabajo
Comienza comparando los ejemplos de content/docs/state-and-lifecycle.md y content/docs/hooks-state.md, especialmente las secciones enlazadas sobre la actualización del estado y el Component Class Equivalent. Revisa si los ejemplos deberían usar actualizaciones funcionales o explicar la distinción y, después, actualiza el artículo para que la relación y el comportamiento sean claros y coherentes.
