React Hooks were introduced in version 16.8.0. They are a complete departure from class component lifecycle events. For more information, see the official React Hooks API Reference.

This flow diagram is also available as a PDF file.
To quickly open the Hook Flow Diagram in your default browser, you can execute the following from your terminal. Commit this to memory! 😉
