Finally a working solution. Thanks. Can you please explain why the code doesn't throw an error (the window object is not defined) during the build process? I tried to implement a solution but I ended up getting this error.

import { useState, useEffect } from "react";

export const useLocalStorage = <T,>(key: string, initialValue: T) => {
  const [storedValue, setStoredValue] = useState(() => {
    if (typeof window === "undefined") {
      return initialValue;
    }
    try {
      // Get from local storage by key
      const item = window.localStorage.getItem(key);
      // Parse stored json or if none return initialValue
      return item ? JSON.parse(item) : initialValue;
    } catch (error) {
      // If error also return initialValue
      console.log(error);
      return initialValue;
    }
  });

  useEffect(() => {
    const setValue = (value: T) => {
      window.localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(value));
    };

    if (storedValue) {
      setValue(storedValue);
    }
  }, [storedValue, key]);

  return [storedValue, setStoredValue];
};

I'm getting this warning in chrome, when using the value for a text input value:

Warning: A component is changing an uncontrolled input to be controlled. This is likely caused by the value changing from undefined to a defined value, which should not happen. Decide between using a controlled or uncontrolled input element for the lifetime of the component. More info: https://reactjs.org/link/controlled-components

Any idea how to prevent this?
