How do you handle forms and validation in React?

Keep field values in state (or use a form library), validate on change or submit, and show per-field error messages. React Hook Form with a schema validator is the common production choice.

Example
function onSubmit(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  if (!email.includes('@')) return setError('Invalid email');
  save({ email });
}
