React forms handle data in two ways.

Controlled components use state. React tracks every keystroke. You get full control over the input.

• State manages the value.
• Change handlers update the state.
• Validation becomes easy.

Uncontrolled components use the DOM. The browser handles the value. You use refs to get the value.

• No constant re-renders.
• Fast for simple forms.
• Less code for basic tasks.

Choose controlled for complex validation. Choose uncontrolled for simple data collection.
