steps (array of { title, fields: [{ name, label, type, required }] }) and onSubmit (callback with formData). This makes the component reusable for any multi-step form. The parent defines the steps and handles submission.

Use useState for currentStep and formData. Define steps as an array of field configs. Render the current step's fields. Validate before next. handleChange updates formData with spread: setFormData(prev => ({ ...prev, [name]: value })).
Use useState with an object: const [formData, setFormData] = useState({}). Update with spread: setFormData(prev => ({ ...prev, [name]: value })). This preserves existing data while adding/updating the changed field.
Write a validateStep function that checks all required fields in the current step: steps[currentStep].fields.every(field => !field.required || formData[field.name]). Call it before next and submit. Show an alert if validation fails.
