How to avoid duplicated logic in React components with custom hooks

Ever find yourself copying and pasting the same logic across multiple React components? It's a classic sign your codebase is getting messy. I used to have `useEffect` hooks for fetching data scattered everywhere. It was a nightmare to maintain. 😫 The game-changer for me was embracing 𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬. Instead of duplicating logic, I now abstract it into a reusable function, like `useFetch(url)`. This hook handles the loading state, the data, and any errors. The component just calls `const { data, loading, error } = useFetch('/api/users');` and it's done. 💡 It keeps my components clean, focused on the UI, and makes the logic super easy to test and update. 🚀 If you write a piece of logic more than once, turn it into a custom hook. Your future self will thank you. What small change made a huge impact in your workflow? #ReactJS #FrontendDevelopment #DeveloperTips
