Hello
I am trying to associate a like button with each PaperCard component as shown in the code below. I have included the relevant code. Currently, The like button shows up and every time you click it the counter increases BUT all the buttons share the same state. So I am trying to fix that. I am new to JS and React.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
function Home() {
const [likes, setLikes] = useState(0);
const incrementLikes = () => {
const addToLikes = likes + 1;
setLikes(addToLikes)
}
const loadMorePapers = () => {
setVisible((prevValue) => prevValue + 3);}
return (
<div>
<div style={{display:'flex', justifyContent:'center'}}>
<h1>Latest Papers</h1>
</div>
{apiData.slice(0, visible).map((paper) => (
<Grid key={paper.title}>
<button onClick={incrementLikes}>Likes: {likes}</button>
<PaperCard title={paper.title} abstract={paper.abstract}/>
</Grid>
))}
<div style={{display:'flex', justifyContent: 'center'}}>
<Button variant="contained" onClick={loadMorePapers}>Load More</Button>
</div>
</div>
)
}

The element from the map callback is extracted as a component, and now every button has its own state.
function Home() {
return (
<div>
<div style={{ display: "flex", justifyContent: "center" }}>
<h1>Latest Papers</h1>
</div>
{apiData.slice(0, visible).map((paper) => (
<LikeButton paper={paper} key={paper.title} />
))}
<div style={{ display: "flex", justifyContent: "center" }}>
<button variant="contained" onClick={loadMorePapers}>Load More</button>
</div>
</div>
);
}
function LikeButton(paper) {
const [likes, setLikes] = useState(0);
const incrementLikes = () => {
const addToLikes = likes + 1;
setLikes(addToLikes);
};
return (
<div key={paper.title}>
<button onClick={incrementLikes}>Likes: {likes}</button>
<PaperCard title={paper.title} abstract={paper.abstract}/>
</div>
);
}
