What is a Higher-Order Component (HOC)?

A Higher-Order Component (HOC) is an advanced React pattern that allows developers to reuse component logic. It is a function that takes a component as input and returns a new enhanced component. HOCs are commonly used for authentication, logging, permissions, data fetching, and other cross-cutting concerns. Examples include connect() from Redux and withRouter() from older React Router versions.
