Create a Shopping Cart with the useState React Hook to Manage Product Quantity and Total
If we're fortunate enough, not only will people want to buy one item from our store, they'll want to buy multiple. To do that, we need to provide a shopping cart, which allows us to store what items the customer wants to buy, how many of them, and how much these items will cost.
To do this, we can take advantage of React's built-in state management hooks to make sure we're accurately keeping track of their order.
We will save our cart data in useState that will be used to calculate the subtotal, total items, and total price that our customer has in their cart. During this process, we will move the Stripe Checkout flow out of our Product Cards and into a new checkout section. The product cards will add items to the state that we create.
My quantity doesn't increment one by one, it's weird but first time clicking the add to cart button it shows 1 quantity, but if clicking again it shows 3 quantity (instead of 2), and if clicking again it shows 5 quantity (instead of 3). Any idea?

Hi, I tried using this <React.StrictMode> but no warning shows, can you specify please? I have checked and the issue is also present if downloading the lesson github code.
Try this build your next.js app and run yarn start and see if u are getting the problem
You have to go to next.config.json and then you set reactStrictMode to false
An issue with printing out the subtotal when clicking on "Buy Now"
console log prints "subtotal NaN"
const subtotal = cartItems.reduce( (accumulator, { pricePerItem, quantity }) => { return accumulator + pricePerItem * quantity; }, 0 );
