The Quick Start guide introduces
useStatebut never names the re-render: it says "React will call your component function again" without connecting that back to calling the setter, which the issue notes is a common point of confusion for beginners coming from plain JavaScript.One-sentence change in the "Updating the screen" section: "Calling
setCounttriggers a re-render: React will call your component function again." This keeps the existing explanation intact while making the setter -> re-render causation explicit.
