obedm··on A Visual Guide to React Mental Models: UseState, UseEffect and Lifecycles

Thank you for your kind words! More to come :)

This is my sentiment. I'd feel frustrated as well if I was on their shoes (visited an interesting article, but it didn't work because of something silly).

It was also unexpected. I didn't even know localStorage could be broken by disabling cookies haha.

The author here: indeed! I've debated myself over and over whether I should make dark mode the default, but I'll implement the "preferred theme" someone mentioned in another comment :)

As the author of the site, I like switching between the two modes on all websites that support it.

Like someone above said, some sites implement it as an after-thought. In my case, I'm giving more love to dark-more because there are simply more nice color combinations in dark more than with white.

(author here) I don't have anything to add, you guys have great arguments, I just want to show appreciation for starting a good debate based on a code example I did :)

You're right, the code is not explained clearly enough. I intended it to be a "don't do this!" part, but I didn't really explain that.

Great attention to detail, thank you for pointing it out, I'll update it!

Thank you for reading it and for your kind words! It means a lot to see this here and for people to have enjoyed it.

I'll write many more such guides!

Thank you so much! That's in my pipeline. I'm going to work first on an in-depth explanation of useEffect since it's the most used one, and I'll cover all the hooks at some point.

The only thing is that a lot of the same ideas are repeating themselves, but the specifics are worth explaining.

Thank you for reading both articles! (author here).

When I write these sometimes-overly-simplified-articles I'm terrified of explaining something wrong, or that my knowledge may be incorrect on a very specific point.

I really like the way you express "everything is a first class 'thing'", I never thought of it that way.

Fix incoming . I'm using local storage to maintain the "dark mode" choice and it can't be accessed if cookies are blocked.

author here. I wasn't aware this was an issue, sorry about that. I'll fix it

I'm the author. It's unbelievably amazing to be on spot #1 in here!

Thank you to whoever uploaded it!

I'm happy to answer any questions
