However, I’ve found that writing autosaving functionality is a little less obvious via hooks. Thankfully, it is still possible (and arguably a lot cleaner) when using hooks.</p> <p>We can accomplish autosaving functionality through use of <code>useEffect</code>. You’ll also need a way to post the data to your server. In my case, I’m using Apollo’s useMutation hook as well. This allows me to post a graphql mutation from a hook-like interface.</p>
