Passing Props to Components
Explore how to pass props in React components to build dynamic, reusable, and interactive interfaces. Understand unidirectional data flow, how to use multiple props, and create components like UserCard with custom data. Gain practical skills by completing exercises that reinforce passing various props to make your React applications flexible and maintainable.
We'll cover the following...
Building dynamic and flexible React applications is impossible without passing data between components. This is where props come into play, allowing components to be reusable and interactive.
Understanding props in React
Props (short for “properties”) are a mechanism for passing data from a parent component to a child component. They allow components to be dynamic and reusable by enabling them to receive input data and render accordingly.
Why props matter
Data flow: Props facilitate the flow of data in a unidirectional (one-way) manner from parent to child components.
Reusability: By accepting props, components become more flexible and can be reused with different data.
Customization: Props allow us to customize components, making them adaptable to various situations. ...
