"use" is just a convention for hook function names, react doesn't require or enforce it.


It's "just" a convention, but a strongly encouraged one. The React docs say:

Its name should always start with `use` so that you can tell at a glance that the rules of Hooks apply to it.

And it is required and enforced if you use the ESLint react-hooks plugin (which I'm guessing most large projects do).
