implement useGlobalState about flutter_hooks HOT 5 CLOSED

Hooks are not a state management library, at least not by default.

They allow some pretty powerful stuff in that matter, but flutter_hooks will hardly suggest one over another. You're free to use redux, bloc, mobx or whatever you like in combination with hooks. Or even bake your own

I thought when i read the example code final counter = useState<int>(5); that can increment the value and update the UI it holds the local state.
Thanks for the clarification.

That is the case. But this is equal to creating a counter property on a State subclass. It's not a global state

You can make one though. In react, there are multiple user made hooks that do something similar.
But it's completely outside of the scope of this library.

@rrousselGit any ideas on how to create such hook?
I'd imagine something related to context, but unlike react, we can't create a new context and use a provider to assign a custom value and dispatch in a tree. Also inherited widget doesn't sound practical.

See Riverpod, it's similar
