React Handlers

React Handlers refer to functions in React components that manage user interactions and events, such as clicks, form submissions, or input changes. They are essential for creating interactive user interfaces by responding to events and updating the component state or triggering side effects. Typically implemented as methods or arrow functions within functional or class components, they handle logic like data processing, API calls, or state modifications.

Also known as: Event Handlers, Event Handling, React Event Handlers, Handler Functions, onClick Handlers
