If you have a parent component which stores an array in the state like this:

๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜—๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต = () => {
๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต [๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด, ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด] = ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜š๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ([]);
๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ <๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด={๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด} ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด={๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด} />;
}

And for some reason If you are adding new element to the array from the child component like this:

๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ = ({ ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด, ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด }) => {
๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฅ = (๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ) => {
๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด([...๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด, ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ]);
};
// ๐˜ด๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜‘๐˜š๐˜Ÿ
};

then instead of passing the extra ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€ prop just to append to the original array state as shown below:

<๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด={๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด} ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด={๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด} />

you can pass only the ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜๐—จ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€ as prop to the child component and use the updater syntax of state for adding new user like this:

๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜Š๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ = ({ ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด }) => {
๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฅ = (๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ) => {
๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜œ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด((๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ท) => [...๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ท, ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ]);
};
}

Here, the ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ parameter will automatically receive the previous value of users array so you can easily add new element to it.

This will avoid the need of passing extra users prop.

๐—˜๐˜…๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ ๐—ง๐—ถ๐—ฝ: In ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—˜๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜ hook, always try to use the updater syntax using the previous value as shown above so you don't need to add extra variable to dependencies array.
