React Basics: Understanding Components, Props, and JSX in Sigma Web Development Course – Tutorial #106

Posted by


In React, Components, Props, and JSX are fundamental concepts that you will encounter frequently while developing applications. Understanding how these concepts work together is crucial for building dynamic and interactive user interfaces. In this tutorial, we will explore each of these concepts in detail and provide examples to help you grasp their functionality.

Components:
Components are the building blocks of a React application. They are reusable, self-contained units of code that encapsulate the behavior and appearance of a specific portion of the user interface. Components can be simple, like a button or text input, or complex, like a form or a dashboard.

There are two types of components in React: functional components and class components. Functional components are simple functions that return JSX (more on JSX later), while class components are ES6 classes that inherit from the React.Component class.

Here is an example of a functional component in React:

import React from 'react';

const Greeting = () => {
  return (
    <h1>Hello, World!</h1>
  );
};

export default Greeting;

Props:
Props (short for properties) are a way to pass data from a parent component to a child component. Props are read-only and cannot be modified within the child component. They are used to customize and configure a component based on the data passed to it.

When a component receives props, they are accessible within the component as an object. You can access props by using the props object within the component.

Here is an example of a component that accepts props:

import React from 'react';

const Greeting = (props) => {
  return (
    <h1>Hello, {props.name}!</h1>
  );
};

export default Greeting;

In this example, the Greeting component accepts a prop called name and renders a personalized greeting using that prop.

To use the Greeting component with props, you can pass the props when rendering the component:

import React from 'react';
import Greeting from './Greeting';

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      <Greeting name="Alice" />
      <Greeting name="Bob" />
    </div>
  );
};

export default App;

JSX:
JSX (JavaScript XML) is a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows you to write HTML-like code within your JavaScript files. JSX makes it easier to write and read React components by combining HTML and JavaScript in a single file.

JSX is not required to write React components, but it is commonly used because of its readability and familiarity to developers. When you write JSX code in a React component, it gets converted to JavaScript code using a transpiler like Babel before being rendered in the browser.

Here is an example of JSX code in a React component:

import React from 'react';

const Greeting = (props) => {
  return (
    <h1>Hello, {props.name}!</h1>
  );
};

export default Greeting;

In this example, the JSX code <h1>Hello, {props.name}!</h1> is converted to JavaScript code by the transpiler before being rendered in the browser.

In conclusion, Components, Props, and JSX are essential concepts in React that you will use frequently while developing applications. By understanding how these concepts work together, you can build dynamic and interactive user interfaces that respond to user input and display data dynamically. Experiment with these concepts in your own projects to solidify your understanding and improve your React skills.
