15. How do you dispatch a thunk from a React component using hooks?
Dispatching a Thunk from a React Component Using Hooks
In Redux Toolkit, you can dispatch a thunk directly from a React component using the useDispatch hook. Since thunks are functions that return a promise, you can also use async/await or unwrap() to handle their results and errors cleanly.

1. Import useDispatch: Get the
dispatchfunction using theuseDispatchhook fromreact-redux. - 2
2. Dispatch the Thunk: Call
dispatch(yourThunk(args))inside an event handler oruseEffect. - 3
3. Handle Results with unwrap(): If you need to access the fulfilled value or catch an error, use the thunk’s
unwrap()method.
By combining thunks with React hooks, you can easily trigger asynchronous actions from components while keeping the UI responsive and Redux logic clean.
