Research direction
The issue requests a useForceUpdate hook that forces a React component to rerender. The linked Medium article provides a reference implementation. The hook can be implemented by creating a custom hook that increments a state counter. Since the issue is old and lacks discussion, contributors should check if there are any existing related hooks in the repository or if the maintainer has expressed any preferences. The implementation should follow the patterns of other hooks in the repo.
