 Note that the Coconut option is initially selected, because of the `selected` attribute. React, instead of using this `selected` attribute, uses a `value` attribute on the root `select` tag. This is more convenient in a controlled component because you only need to update it in one place. For example:
 
 ```javascript{4,10-12,24}
-class FlavorForm extends React.Component {
-  constructor(props) {
-    super(props);
-    this.state = {value: 'coconut'};
-
-    this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
-    this.handleSubmit = this.handleSubmit.bind(this);
-  }
-
-  handleChange(event) {
-    this.setState({value: event.target.value});
-  }
-
-  handleSubmit(event) {
-    alert('Your favorite flavor is: ' + this.state.value);
+function FlavourForm() {
+  const [flavour, setFlavour] = useState("");
+  const handleSubmit = (event) => {
+    alert(`Your favorite flavor is ${flavour}`);
     event.preventDefault();

 Overall, this makes it so that `<input type="text">`, `<textarea>`, and `<select>` all work very similarly - they all accept a `value` attribute that you can use to implement a controlled component.
