For the first time I met this method of setting a variable. I'm a little tangled up with double brackets. What does this mean?
var defaultState = (0, _state2.default)(servicePath, stateOptions);

(0, _state2.default) is an expression which contains comma operator. It evaluates to its last operand. Here _state2.default is last operand. So
(0, _state2.default)(servicePath, stateOptions);
Is same as
_state2.default(servicePath, stateOptions);
The second brackets call the function with two arguments.
The first () are used to group an expression. While the second () are used to call the function.

2But why would we use it like this? We can call `_state2.default(servicePath, stateOptions);` directly, or `(_state2.default)(servicePath, stateOptions);` if we want to keep the brackets. – R Xy May 18 '19 at 03:24
