Issue #72

Number one this week, React Hook Form is a library to handle forms in React applications using hooks.

It’s lightweight (no dependencies) and it has a minimal API.

The documentation shows clearly how it’s easy to add form validation to your components, comparing the implementation of a simple email registration form with 2 popular alternatives: Redux Form and Formik.

The biggest difference with the other libraries is the fact that form inputs are not “controlled”, there is no rendering cycle triggered every time the user enters a key in a text field for example, this is a good point for performance.
