React Hooks are functions introduced in React 16.8 that let developers use state and other React features like lifecycle methods within function components, without needing to write class components. Common hooks include useState for managing local state, useEffect for handling side effects, and useContext for accessing shared data. They are widely used by front-end developers to write more concise, reusable, and easier-to-test component logic.
