Won't using string paths like lodash makes it hard to use this library with typescript?

Probably a fair point. I hadn't really taken typescript into account for the purposes of this library.

Since in TS you can guarantee the user has optional chaining, so it may not be that big a change

  // instead of
  useHookedOnState('app.components.counterValue', 0)
  // maybe
  useHookedOnState(state => state.app?.components?.counterValue, 0)

edit: on second thought, you're probably using that string in the setter as well. dang.

Yup, that's the "magic" part.
