How to store form data in Cloud Firestore with React | Part 7 ReactJS Tutorial Series with Full App
In this React Firebase Firestore tutorial, we are going to go over submitting form data, specifically text inputs, to your Cloud Firestore database. Hooks won't be necessary here since we are just submitting data with the saveAnswer() handler. This handler pulls everything from the form and puts it into an object that we pass to Firebase Cloud Firestore. The method for saving our data is the Firestore "add" method, so that we don't have to make a unique id ourselves. If you would like to set the id for the new document yourself, for example, if you were trying to keep track of the user's id that submitted the data, look into Firestore's "set" method.
If you would rather control your form with useState hooks, see my example here in a previous tutorial video: • React JS Tutorial - 03 FIREBASE AUTH ...
