JavaScript prerequisites for React (hooks)
summary
Covers concrete gotchas and fixes: demonstrates automatic semicolon insertion breaking multi-line return of JSX and fixes with parentheses, shows array destructuring as the reason useState returns [value, setter] and why code uses const [count, setCount], builds small components (stopwatch, button) to show event closures capturing state, proves mutating arrays with push prevents re-render because React compares references with === so use spread to create new arrays, and recommends let/const over var and learning hooks first.
