What Causes This Error?

This error indicates an infinite loop where a state update triggers a re-render, which triggers another state update. Usually caused by missing or incorrect dependency arrays in useEffect.

Solution

Check your useEffect dependency arrays. Ensure state updates do not trigger the same effect that caused them. Use functional updates when updating state based on previous state.
