I have been trying to update the email and password value on submitting the formso that I can pass them in my login API parameters. But I have tried almost everything, the value of this.state won't just update. Every time I try to print the value in console log e.g: cosole.log(this.state.email), it prints empty string i.e the default value set previously.Here is my code below:
