 Hooks are a great way to encapsulate business logic. If none of the existing hooks work for your problem, you can write your own.
 
+When writing your hook, you can make a function that accepts `cx: &ScopeState` as a parameter to accept a scope with any Props.

 ## Composing Hooks
 
 To avoid repetition, you can encapsulate business logic based on existing hooks to create a new hook.

 ## Custom Hook Logic
 
 You can use [`cx.use_hook`](https://docs.rs/dioxus/latest/dioxus/prelude/struct.ScopeState.html#method.use_hook) to build your own hooks. In fact, this is what all the standard hooks are built on!
@@ -23,4 +31,61 @@ You can use [`cx.use_hook`](https://docs.rs/dioxus/latest/dioxus/prelude/struct.
 Inside the initialization closure, you will typically make calls to other `cx` methods. For example:
 
 - The `use_state` hook tracks state in the hook value, and uses [`cx.schedule_update`](https://docs.rs/dioxus/latest/dioxus/prelude/struct.ScopeState.html#method.schedule_update) to make Dioxus re-render the component whenever it changes.
+
+Here is a simplified implementation of the `use_state` hook:
+
+```rust
+{{#include ../../../examples/hooks_custom_logic.rs:use_state}}
+```
+
 - The `use_context` hook calls [`cx.consume_context`](https://docs.rs/dioxus/latest/dioxus/prelude/struct.ScopeState.html#method.consume_context) (which would be expensive to call on every render) to get some context from the scope
+
+Here is an implementation of the `use_context` and `use_context_provider` hooks:
+
+```rust
+{{#include ../../../examples/hooks_custom_logic.rs:use_context}}
+```
+
+## Hook Anti-Patterns
+
+When writing a custom hook, you should avoid the following anti-patterns:
+
+- !Clone Hooks: To allow hooks to be used within async blocks, the hooks must be Clone. To make a hook clone, you can wrap data in Rc or Arc and avoid lifetimes in hooks.
+
+This version of use_state may seem more efficient, but it is not cloneable:
+
+```rust
+{{#include ../../../examples/hooks_anti_patterns.rs:non_clone_state}}
+```
+
+If we try to use this hook in an async block, we will get a compile error:
+
+```rust
+fn FutureComponent(cx: &ScopeState) -> Element {
+    let my_state = my_use_state(cx, || 0);
+    cx.spawn({
+        to_owned![my_state];
+        async move {
+            my_state.set(1);
+        }
+    });
+
+    todo!()
+}
+```
+
+But with the original version, we can use it in an async block:
+
+```rust
+fn FutureComponent(cx: &ScopeState) -> Element {
+    let my_state = use_state(cx, || 0);
+    cx.spawn({
+        to_owned![my_state];
+        async move {
+            my_state.set(1);
+        }
+    });
+
+    todo!()
+}
+```
