Polymorphic Component Element Attributes

Polymorphic Component Element Attributes

Press + to interact
import React from "react";
export const PolymorphicText = ({ as, children }) => {
  const Component = as || "span";
  return <Component>{children}</Component>;
};

The only props this component accepts are as and children, and nothing else.

Press + to interact
const PolymorphicText = ({ as, children }) => {
  ...
};
