Too many re-renders. React limits the number of renders to prevent an infinite loop. when i am using custom hooks

**i have been stuck with this issue where i am getting this error i have made this custom hooks for validation which i wanted to use in registration form.. **

import { useState } from 'react'

function useValidate(formData) {

    const [isValid,setIsValid] = useState(true);

    console.log(formData)

    if(formData.fName === ''){
        setIsValid(false);
        console.log('fname')
    }
    else if(formData.lName === ''){
        setIsValid(false);
        console.log('lname')
    }
        return isValid


}

export default useValidate

This is my registartion form where i am calling this custom hook named useValidate but it throwing error

i have passed formData as parameter to the useValidate hook and using that i am validate my form

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import useValidate from '../hooks/useValidate'

function Form() {
    const [formData, setFormData] = useState({
        fName:'',
        lName:'',
    })

    const isValid = useValidate(formData)

    const handleChange = (e) =>{
        setFormData({...formData,id:new Date().getMilliseconds().toString(),[e.target.name]:e.target.value})
        console.log(formData)
    }

    const handleSubmit = (e) =>{
        e.preventDefault();
        if(isValid){
            alert('success')
        }
        else{
            alert('fill the blank input')
        }
    }

 
    return (
        <div className='container col-5 my-5'>
            <h1>Registration</h1>
            <div className="mb-3">
                <label htmlFor="fName" className="form-label">First Name</label>
                <input type="text" className="form-control" id="fName" name='fName'  value={formData.fName} onChange={handleChange}/>
            </div>
            <div className="mb-3">
                <label htmlFor="lName" className="form-label">Last Name</label>
                <input type="text" className="form-control" id="lName" name='lName' value={formData.lName} onChange={handleChange} />
            </div>

            <div className="mb-3">
                <button className='btn btn-success' type='submit' onClick={handleSubmit}>Register</button>
            </div>
        </div>

    )
}

export default Form```

First you tried it nicely. In your Validate Hook there are multiple problems:

1. Always return in {} so you can return multiple states and functions.
2. If else condition of formData should be in a separate function that should be called in handleSubmit function.
3. Its better to use arrow function (not necessary) for component.

Here is the code that works perfect.

USEVALIDATE

import { useState } from 'react';

const useValidate=()=>{
  const [validationResults, setValidationResults] = useState({ fName: true, lName: true });

  const validateForm = (formData) => {
    const results = {
      fName: formData.fName !== '',
      lName: formData.lName !== '',
    };
    setValidationResults(results);
    return results;
  };

  return {
    validateForm,
    validationResults,
  };
}

export default useValidate;

FORM.js

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import useValidate from '../hooks/useValidate';

function Form() {
  const [formData, setFormData] = useState({
    fName: '',
    lName: '',
  });

  const { validateForm, validationResults } = useValidate();

  const handleChange = (e) => {
    setFormData({ ...formData, [e.target.name]: e.target.value });
  };

  const handleSubmit = (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    const results = validateForm(formData);
    if (results.fName && results.lName) {
      alert('success');
    } else {
      alert('fill the blank input');
    }
  };

  return (
    // ... your JSX code ...
  );
}

export default Form;

Happy coding.
