Tutorial #45: Use useParams in React Router V6

Use useParams in React Router V6

React Router is a popular library that allows for routing in React applications. With version 6 of React Router, there have been some changes to how we can access parameters in our routes. One of the ways to do this is by using the useParams hook.

Step 1: Install React Router

If you haven’t already, make sure to install React Router in your project. You can do this by running the following command:

npm install react-router-dom

Step 2: Setting up your Routes

In your App component, set up your routes using the Routes component from React Router:

{`import { Routes, Route } from 'react-router-dom';

function App() {
  return (
    
      <Route path="/tutorial/:id" element={} />
    
  );
}`}

Step 3: Accessing Params with useParams

In your Tutorial component, you can access the parameters from the URL by using the useParams hook from React Router:

{`import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";

function Tutorial() {
  let { id } = useParams();

  return (
    

Tutorial {id}

This is tutorial {id}.

); }`}

By using the useParams hook, you can easily access and use parameters from the URL in your React components. This is helpful for creating dynamic content based on the URL.

Conclusion

Using the useParams hook in React Router V6 allows for easy access to parameters from the URL in your components. This can be useful for creating dynamic and flexible routes in your React applications.
