Altering React Form But Input Value Not Editable

I came from angularjs background, with 2 way binding I don't have to worry much, just declare a submit function, I can get the changed or unchanged value. I'm stuck with react now.

Solution 1:

If you do not want to use Controlled Components then you can use Uncontrolled Components.

Specifically, you can use the defaultValue prop instead of value on your input.

As to your second question, you will have to be more clear what you are asking or perhaps better to ask in a separate Q altogether.
