How to Update Data in React | Edit User Form with API (CRUD Tutorial - Ep 28)

📌 In Episode 28 of the React 19 Full Stack Masterclass, we continue building our Users CRUD module by implementing the Edit and Update User functionality. In the previous episodes, we successfully implemented: ✅ Users listing (Read operation) ✅ Create User form using React Hook Form ✅ Form validation with client-side and server-side error handling ✅ Now it's time to implement the Update operation of CRUD. In this episode, we will learn how to edit existing users, fetch their data from the backend, and prefill the form fields so the user can update their information easily. We will also reuse the same form component for both Create and Edit operations, which helps avoid duplicate code and keeps the application clean and maintainable. Additionally, we will implement the necessary Laravel backend APIs to fetch a single user and update the user data securely. 📚 What You Will Learn in This Episode ✅ How to implement Edit and Update functionality in CRUD ✅ How to create dynamic routes using React Router ✅ How to fetch a single user record from Laravel ✅ How to prefill form fields using React Hook Form reset() ✅ How to reuse the same form for Create and Edit operations ✅ How to send PUT update requests to Laravel API ✅ Why passwords should not be populated in edit forms ✅ Best practices for building scalable full stack applications 🧰 Technologies Used ✅ React 19 ✅ Laravel 12 ✅ Laravel Sanctum ✅ React Router v7 ✅ React Context API ✅ React Hook Form ✅ REST API ✅ Tailwind CSS 📺 Series Progress So Far In this masterclass we have already built: ✅ Authentication using Laravel Sanctum ✅ Login and registration APIs ✅ Global authentication state using React Context API ✅ Protected routes with React Router ✅ Users List (Read operation) ✅ Create User (Create operation) ✅ Form Validation with React Hook Form ✅ Edit & Update User (Update operation) In the next episode, we will complete the CRUD module by implementing the Delete User feature, along with a confirmation dialog and better UI interactions.
