    ///
    /// ### Reading and Writing to data in the same scope
    ///
    /// Reading and writing to the same signal in the same scope will cause that scope to rerun forever:
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// let mut signal = use_signal(|| 0);
    /// // This makes the scope rerun whenever we write to the signal
    /// println!("{}", *signal.read());
    /// // This will rerun the scope because we read the signal earlier in the same scope
    /// *signal.write() += 1;
    /// ```
    ///
    /// You may have used the write_silent method to avoid this infinite loop with use_ref like this:
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// let signal = use_signal(|| 0);
    /// // This makes the scope rerun whenever we write to the signal
    /// println!("{}", *signal.read());
    /// // Write silent will not rerun any subscribers
    /// *signal.write_silent() += 1;
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Instead you can use the [`peek`](Signal::peek) and [`write`](Signal::write) methods instead. The peek method will not subscribe to the current scope which will avoid an infinite loop if you are reading and writing to the same signal in the same scope.
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// let mut signal = use_signal(|| 0);
    /// // Peek will read the value but not subscribe to the current scope
    /// println!("{}", *signal.peek());
    /// // Write will update any subscribers which does not include the current scope
    /// *signal.write() += 1;
    /// ```
    ///
    /// ### Reading and Writing to different data
    ///
    ///
    ///
    /// ## Why is this pattern no longer recommended?
    ///
    /// This pattern is no longer recommended because it is very easy to allow your state and UI to grow out of sync. `write_silent` globally opts out of automatic state updates which can be difficult to reason about.
    ///
    ///
    /// Lets take a look at an example:
    /// main.rs:
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// # fn Child() -> Element { unimplemented!() }
    /// fn app() -> Element {
    ///     let signal = use_context_provider(|| Signal::new(0));
    ///
    ///     // We want to log the value of the signal whenever the app component reruns
    ///     println!("{}", *signal.read());
    ///
    ///     rsx! {
    ///         button {
    ///             // If we don't want to rerun the app component when the button is clicked, we can use write_silent
    ///             onclick: move |_| *signal.write_silent() += 1,
    ///             "Increment"
    ///         }
    ///         Child {}
    ///     }
    /// }
    /// ```
    /// child.rs:
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// fn Child() -> Element {
    ///     let signal: Signal<i32> = use_context();
    ///
    ///     // It is difficult to tell that changing the button to use write_silent in the main.rs file will cause UI to be out of sync in a completely different file
    ///     rsx! {
    ///         "{signal}"
    ///     }
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Instead [`peek`](Signal::peek) locally opts out of automatic state updates explicitly for a specific read which is easier to reason about.
    ///
    /// Here is the same example using peek:
    /// main.rs:
    /// ```rust, no_run
    /// # use dioxus::prelude::*;
    /// # fn Child() -> Element { unimplemented!() }
    /// fn app() -> Element {
    ///     let mut signal = use_context_provider(|| Signal::new(0));
    ///
    ///     // We want to log the value of the signal whenever the app component reruns, but we don't want to rerun the app component when the signal is updated so we use peek instead of read
    ///     println!("{}", *signal.peek());
    ///
    ///     rsx! {
    ///         button {
    ///             // We can use write like normal and update the child component automatically
    ///             onclick: move |_| *signal.write() += 1,
    ///             "Increment"
    ///         }
    ///         Child {}
    ///     }

#[allow(unused)]
const SIGNAL_READ_WRITE_SAME_SCOPE_HELP: &str = r#"This issue is caused by reading and writing to the same signal in a reactive scope. Components, effects, memos, and resources each have their own a reactive scopes. Reactive scopes rerun when any signal you read inside of them are changed. If you read and write to the same signal in the same scope, the write will cause the scope to rerun and trigger the write again. This can cause an infinite loop.

You can fix the issue by either:
1) Splitting up your state and Writing, reading to different signals:

For example, you could change this broken code:

#[derive(Clone, Copy)]
struct Counts {
    count1: i32,
    count2: i32,
}

fn app() -> Element {
    let mut counts = use_signal(|| Counts { count1: 0, count2: 0 });

    use_effect(move || {
        // This effect both reads and writes to counts
        counts.write().count1 = counts().count2;
    })
}

Into this working code:

fn app() -> Element {
    let mut count1 = use_signal(|| 0);
    let mut count2 = use_signal(|| 0);

    use_effect(move || {
        count1.write(count2());
    });
}
2) Reading and Writing to the same signal in different scopes:

For example, you could change this broken code:

fn app() -> Element {
    let mut count = use_signal(|| 0);

    use_effect(move || {
        // This effect both reads and writes to count
        println!("{}", count());
        count.write(count());
    });
}


To this working code:

fn app() -> Element {
    let mut count = use_signal(|| 0);

    use_effect(move || {
        count.write(count());
    });
    use_effect(move || {
        println!("{}", count());
    });
}
