-A hook that handles asynchronous calls.
-
-- Create a custom hook that takes a handler `function` and `options`.
-- Use the `React.useState()` hook to initialize the `value`, `error` and `loading` state variables.
-- Use the `React.useEffect()` hook to call `run()` method and update the state variables accordingly if `options.autoRun` set to true.
-- Use the `run` function to manually trigger `handler` function.
-- Return an object containting the `value`, `error` and `isLoading` state variables and `run` function.

+
+A hook that handles asynchronous calls.
+
+- Create a custom hook that takes a handler function, `fn`.
+- Define a reducer function and an initial state for the custom hook's state.
+- Use the `React.useReducer()` hook to initialize the `state` variable and the `dispatch` function.
+- Define a `run` function that will run the provided callback, `fn`, while using `dispatch` to update `state` as necessary.
+- Return an object containting the the properties of `state` (`value`, `error` and `loading`) and the `run` function.
+
+```jsx
+const useAsync = (fn) => {
+  const initialState = { loading: false, error: null, value: null };
+  const stateReducer = (_, action) => {
+    switch (action.type) {
+      case 'start':
+        return { loading: true, error: null, value: null};
+      case 'finish':
+        return { loading: false, error: null, value: action.value};
+      case 'error':
+        return { loading: false, error: action.error, value: null};
+    }
+  }
+
+  const [state, dispatch] = React.useReducer(stateReducer, initialState);
