Using Context API in react app

The Context API is a structure component that enables React to handle states at all stages of your application. It acts as a redux which allows you to use context and prevent your application from using third party libraries. Our context needs to be established and we only need to pass on the context values via the provider for our react application.

Why do we need this new Context API?

We need to use such memory management artefacts for small-scale applications to handle data in the software. Since we use the component tree structure to maintain the states and pass on the unidirectional hierarchy props from parent to children, we need to use the context API to handle the application’s data. By following the code structure with a small example increment counter, you can set up the context API.
