What problem does it solve?

Managing form state, pending states, and server action results can lead to complex and error-prone client-side logic. React 19's useActionState streamlines this, providing a robust solution for form handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tracks Pending State: Automatically manages an isPending flag during form submissions, simplifying loading indicators.
  • Manages Form State: Returns the current state from Server Action results, enabling dynamic UI updates based on success or errors.
  • Server Action Integration: Works seamlessly with 'use server' functions for server-side validation and data mutations.
  • Progressive Enhancement: Supports optional permalinks for forms that submit even before JavaScript loads.
  • Use Case: Refactor a ContactForm component to use useActionState for managing submission state, displaying loading indicators, and showing server-side validation errors, significantly reducing client-side boilerplate.

Quick Start

Implement a simple contact form in src/components/ContactForm.js using useActionState to handle submission and display success/error messages.
