I added the useEffect() hook in a client component, and now it throws me the error:

Error: Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component.

I just fetches widgets form the API using React Query, and sets the first widget it received as the current value.

Seems like useEffect has an issue with useQuery?

Not sure you can do that

Why wouldn't it be possible?

Do you actually use useEffect in Next?

The code seems to work without it, but I learned to use useEffect from vanilla React.

Yes you can use it in NextJS

It works fine without useEffect, but not sure if it's good code like this.
