Stateful Components
Overview of the problem
At the moment our <App /> is stateless, so to begin, convert it to a stateful component by importing useState() into the component.
Requirements
The first requirement in the "Detailed Forecast" step was:
UI should display forecast for one day in more detail.
We used the first element in forecasts array to display any value. Now it's the time to display the appropriate one.
Technical task breakdown
- Import
useState()into the<App />component. - Add a
useState()hook to your<App />component with its return value destructured toselectedDateandsetSelectedDate. Set the initial value ofuseState()to the date of the first forecast withinforecastsarray. - Create a
selectedForecastvariable and set its value to the date within yourforecaststhat matches theselectedDate(think of a function that can search through an array and return the matching value) and pass theselectedForecastvariable into the<ForecastDetails />component. Don't worry if all you see is an error, we will tackle it in the next step.
