Why does the React hook useRef throw an error when used?

The error
This is the error that shows in the brower over the webpage.

Compiled with problems:X

ERROR


src\components\SignIn.js
  Line 5:21:  React Hook "useRef" is called in function "signin" that is neither a React function component nor a custom React Hook function. React component names must start with an uppercase letter. React Hook names must start with the word "use"  react-hooks/rules-of-hooks

SignIn.js
The part of my code that uses the React hook useRef.

import React, { useRef } from 'react'
import { Card, Button, Form } from 'react-bootstrap'

export default function signin() {
    const userRef = useRef()

    return (
        <>
            <Card>
                <Card.Body>
                    <h2 className='text-center mb-4'>Magnet</h2>
                    <Form>
                        <Form.Group id="username">
                            <Form.Label>Username</Form.Label>
                            <Form.Control type='text' ref={userRef} required />
                        </Form.Group>
                    </Form>
                </Card.Body>
            </Card>
        </>

You can't call a hook in a normal function, it must be called from a hook or functional component.

export default function signin() 

The naming convention above doesn't refer to either. Change to Signin. And indeed, the error message explains that.

You already have answer in your error

Line 5:21:  React Hook "useRef" is called in function "signin" that is neither a React function component nor a custom React Hook function. React component names must start with an uppercase letter. React Hook names must start with the word "use"  react-hooks/rules-of-hooks

you should change component name with Signin
