React Js Reset Form Fields
React Js Reset form fields: To reset form fields in React.js, you can use the reset() method on the form element. This will clear all the input fields and restore their default values .To reset form fields in React.js, you can create a function that sets the state of the form fields to their initial values. This can be achieved by storing the initial values in state or by resetting the values to their default values. Then, you can bind this function to a button or an event handler that triggers the reset action. When the button or event is triggered, the state is updated, causing the form fields to be reset to their initial or default values. This allows users to easily clear the form and start over without having to manually delete or change each field.

How to Reset form field in React Js?
In React, when you create a form with input fields, the values of those fields are managed by React's state. So, if you want to reset the form fields, you need to update the state to restore the default values of the form fields.
However, you can also use the reset() method provided by the HTML form element to reset the form fields. This method clears all the input fields and restores their default values.
To use the reset() method, you need to get a reference to the form element. In React, you can use the ref attribute to get a reference to any element in the DOM. To create a ref in a functional component, you can use the useRef() hook. The useRef() hook returns a mutable object that you can use to store a reference to an element.
Once you have a reference to the form element, you can call the reset() method on that element to reset the form fields. You can call the reset() method in an event handler function, such as the handleSubmit function in the example I provided earlier. In this way, when the user submits the form, the handleSubmit function is called, and it first prevents the default form submission behavior using event.preventDefault(), then resets the form fields using formRef.current.reset().
