I can't use React hooks inside of the Sketch file? about react HOT 5 CLOSED

A sketch isn't a react component so this won't work.

You could do like the example here which uses an input to update a rotation hook value which is then passed to the sketch defined here. Wouldn't this be the solution you're looking for?

Thanks @jamesrweb Yes! I've figured this out after understanding a bit more how React lift the states up https://reactjs.org/docs/lifting-state-up.html

And p5.myCustomRedrawAccordingToNewPropsHandler is awesome!

Can close this now (:

The actual link for examples is here

Unfortunately those links are no longer live, could you share them another way?

I also saw you respond in another issue that you wouldn't implement hooks without a good reason, how about this, making async web3 calls and general web3-react integration within Processing. Currently working on a project that needs this, I think it will become increasingly useful as well!

Thanks so much

EDIT:
Ok I found the new path to the examples you linked and was able to pass in a function from the parent component that calls the hook and that worked!

Updated the links for future references to be in tact. 👍🏻
