Hooks, for example, were introduced in React 16.8 and introduced useState and useEffect making reusable stateful logic easy. This was a massive improvement over the previous iteration.

In our new article we go through the many updates React has received over the years to showcase how its incremental updates have been consistent with the original vision for the framework.
