New Hook: useId

Today we are announcing a new hook: useId. This hook creates stable unique identifiers that are consistent between server-side rendering (using preact-render-to-string) and client-side hydration. The useId() hook is primarily useful for generating identifiers for attributes like aria-labelledby and <label for="...">.

To enable useId() to generate consistent unique identifiers, please ensure you are using preact-render-to-string version 5.2.4 or newer for server-side rendering.
