useVariable hook idea about usehooks

[gragland]

Thanks for the idea and sorry for the late reply! I'm a little unclear on the benefit over useRef. Is it just that you no longer have to remember that the value is stored in ref.current, as the hook just returns the value instead of the ref?

In my eyes the benefit is that the return value of useVariable is structuraly the same as useState whereas the one rerenders and the other not. With this approach you can easily pass the setter function to another component without altering anything
