Executes a callback immediately after a component is mounted.

• Use the useEffect() hook with an empty array as the second argument. This will execute the provided callback only once when the component is mounted.
• Behaves like the componentDidMount() lifecycle method of class components.

const useComponentDidMount = onMountHandler => {
  React.useEffect(() => {
    onMountHandler();
  }, []);
};

const Mounter = () => {
  useComponentDidMount(() => console.log('Component did mount'));

  return <div>Check the console!</div>;
};

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(
  <Mounter />
);
