It may seem tempting to only use stateful class components and develop a whole application like that. Why would we even bother with stateless functional components? The answer is performance. Stateless functional components can be rendered faster. One of the reasons why this is the case is because stateless functional components do not require some of the life cycle hooks.
What are life cycle hooks? React components have life cycles. This means that they have different stages like mounting, unmounting, and updating. You can hook each stage and even sub stage. Please check the official React documentation to see the full list of available life cycle methods: https://reactjs.org/docs/state-and-lifecycle.html ...
