Application state in React Query cache?!?

[andrewcovenant]

Hello everyone,

I would like to share with you some discussions and approaches regarding using React-Query and I would like your opinion on this and maybe some contributors can help with some guidance.

We have the following requirement:

We are developing a multi-step form in React.js and our client would like some drafting functionality.

Instead of having a context with useDispatch to keep the application state, I'm populating the React Query cache to keep draft data (Application state).

So, the question is: Can I use React Query cache to keep the application state? Or is it just for the server state? Is my approach correct?
