Hello there, try these codes to increment your value

class Counter extends React.Component{
 constructor(props){
   super(props);
     this.addOne = this.addOne.bind(this);
       this.state = {
         count : 0 
       }
    }

addOne() {                              // addOne as HandleClick
  this.setState((preState) => {
    return {
      count : preState.count + 1
      };
   });
 }

render() {
   return (
      <div>
        <h1>Count : {this.state.count}</h1>
        <button onClick={this.addOne}>+1</button>
      </div>
     );
   }
 }

ReactDOM.render(<Counter />, document.getElementById('YOUR-ID'));

This is the shortest code for that. First, initialize the state, then perform a method to increment.

state = {
    counter: 0
  }

increaseHandler = () => {
    let counter = this.state.counter
    counter += 1
    this.setState({counter: counter})
  }
