Why does logging state immediately after setState show the old value?
KitForma editorial guide. A handler reads the state snapshot from the render that created it.
Step-by-step answer
A handler reads the state snapshot from the render that created it.
setCount(count + 1) schedules another render; it does not replace the handler’s count variable. Compute const next = count + 1 when that event needs the calculated value, or observe committed count in an Effect. Verify the rendered label after clicking. Do not add a timeout as a promise that a captured variable will become current.Sources and verification
