The Complete React Developer Course (with Hooks and Redux) - Cleaning up Effects

The video tutorial explains how to use the useEffect hook in React to replace traditional lifecycle methods like componentDidMount, componentDidUpdate, and componentWillUnmount. It demonstrates creating a separate note component, passing props, and destructuring them. The tutorial also covers setting up useEffect with dependencies to control when effects run and how to register cleanup functions to manage component unmounting. The video emphasizes the importance of explicitly listing dependencies to avoid unnecessary re-renders and highlights the benefits of using useEffect for cleaner and more manageable code.
