What is the prior art for Hooks?

Hooks synthesize ideas from several different sources:

• Our old experiments with functional APIs in the react-future repository.
• React community’s experiments with render prop APIs, including Ryan Florence’s Reactions Component.
• Dominic Gannaway’s adopt keyword proposal as a sugar syntax for render props.
• State variables and state cells in DisplayScript.
• Reducer components in ReasonReact.
• Subscriptions in Rx.
• Algebraic effects in Multicore OCaml.
