usage

import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import useDynamicRefs from 'use-dynamic-refs';

function MyForm() {
  const { refs, setRef } = useDynamicRefs({
    username: null,
    email: null,
    password: null,  
    confirmPassword: null,  
  });

  useEffect(() => {
    if (refs.username.current) {
      refs.username.current.focus();
    }
  }, []);

  const handleSubmit = (event) => {
    event.preventDefault();
    const username = refs.username.current?.value;
    const email = refs.email.current?.value;
    const password = refs.password.current?.value; 
    const confirmPassword = refs.confirmPassword.current?.value; 

    console.log('Username:', username);
    console.log('Email:', email);
    console.log('Password:', password); 
    console.log('Confirm Password:', confirmPassword); 
  };

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <input ref={setRef('username')} type="text" placeholder="Username" />
      <input ref={setRef('email')} type="email" placeholder="Email" />
      <input ref={setRef('password')} type="password" placeholder="Password" /> 
      <input ref={setRef('confirmPassword')} type="password" placeholder="Confirm Password" /> 
      <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    </form>
