How to set initial useState value in React based on props

I currently set my active state to 0:

const [active, setActive] = useState(0);

but I’m wondering how I can set the initial value to null if one of my component props: isFilterMode is true? So the initial state is "dynamic" based on the props?

>Solution :

Try like below

const [active, setActive] = useState(props.isFilterMode ? null : 0);

Or

using a callback function (lazy initialisation)

const [active, setActive] = useState(() => props.isFilterMode ? null : 0);
