[Question] useCursor

[mattblackdev]

Hey awesome job on this! Where's useCursor coming from in the readme examples? Is it the same as doing this: useTracker(() => MyCollection.find())?

Thanks @mattblackdev (I know it's lame to comment on this but — awesome name 😁)

useCursor was from an upcoming version of react-meteor-data, which I think @CaptainN ended up abandoning.

Yeah, found the original PR: meteor/react-packages#298

I've broken out the remaining work from this PR to meteor/react-packages#332 (useFind and a new version of useSubscribe added to react-meteor-data) and meteor/react-packages#333 (new package: react-meteor-state with useMeteorState hook).

I'll do the same for react-meteor-accounts and that will obsolete this PR.

That said, I think you should be fine replacing the calls with useTracker or something similar — the key for this is replacing the subscription (useSubscribe or Meteor.subscribe), and then you get the benefit of Suspense meaning the data will be there below that. How you then get the data is probably irrelevant.
