The useFormik Hook

In React, hooks are reusable functions that allow us to access the state and lifecycle methods of functional components. We can use them to write stateful logic (any logic that depends on the state of the component).

The useFormik hook is a custom hook provided by Formik used to initialize and configure a Formik form instance. It accepts an object as an argument and returns an object containing various properties and methods that we can use to manage the state and behavior of the form, hence, making our lives easier.
