I have a problem in handling input’s value changing so here is my code in react,onChange works but when i clear the default value it doesn’t log anything until i do another change.
<Form.Control type="text" placeholder="name" defaultValue={this.state.name} onChange={e=>console.log(e.target.value)} />
I wrote console.log just for test.

Value is not changing because in reactjs component rerenders once state chages and using console.log
on onChange
does not update any change in state. so you have to update the state on onChange event,
Try following, I am assuming it is class component as you have used this.state.name
<Form.Control type="text" name="name" placeholder="name" defaultValue={this.state.name || ""} value={this.state.name} onChange={e=>this.setState({name:e.target.value})} />
