Understanding the OWL component life cycle

OWL components have several methods that help developers to create powerful and interactive components. Some of the important methods of the OWL components are as follows:

• setup()

• onWillUpdateProps()
• onWillPatch()
• onPatched()
• onMounted()
• onWillUnmount()
• onWillDestroy()
