Description
Summary
Hello 👋
- useActionState should return
[state, formAction, isPending], not just[state, formAction] - The doc make it unclear if we can actually use this hook outside of a form, there are only examples about using it in a form and the second item in the return is
formAction, but the author of the hook specified it should not always be the case

Open the useActionState reference page and inspect its Returns section and form-based examples, then compare the linked React PR for the intended non-form behavior. Done means the return value includes isPending and the page clearly explains whether and how the hook can be used outside forms.
