    Hello Clue Mediator,

    I am new to using react-hooks but going through your materials most are based on react . I am working on a form where the input field is either enabled or disabled based on the value selected in a dropdown field. How can i achieve this using react hooks.

    i.e if I have a field called Fruits which is a dropdown with three options like mango, orange and guava
    and another input field called number, if mango is selected in the previous field the Number input field is disabled else enabled when other options are selected. Please any help?

    Thank you

      You have to store your options in a state variable and depending on your condition you can change the list of options in the state variable.
