Part 6 [RBP] Create Hooks For Your Context Providers

This lesson presents a best practice for working with context providers in React, specifically addressing situations where a meaningful default value isn't available.

• The Problem with Undefined Context: Understand the challenges of using context providers without a proper default value, leading to potential silent failures and difficulties in debugging.
• Custom Hooks for Context Providers: Learn how to create custom hooks that encapsulate the logic for accessing and validating context values, ensuring that errors are caught early in the development process.
• Improving Code Reliability and Reusability: Discover how this approach improves code readability, promotes reusability of context-related logic, and provides more informative error messages, making your React applications more robust.
