Why?

See more in-depth explanation at: donovan/use-instance.

• useRef is weird.
• The fact that you have to access it via .current is strange.
• You treat the object returned by useInstance just like you would this in a class component, so you're already familiar with how it works.
• Use useRef if you're dealing with actual DOM elements.
• Use useInstance for instance properties and methods.
