WHAT IS JSX​
JSX (JavaScript XML) is a syntax extension for React that allows you to describe the UI
structure of your components using a syntax resembling HTML. It's a popular way to write React
components because it makes the code more readable and easier to maintain.

Structure:
JSX elements are written using opening and closing tags, similar to HTML elements. However,
JSX elements can contain both HTML-like attributes and JavaScript expressions enclosed in
curly braces {}.

const element = <h1>Hello, {name}!</h1>;

React Components
What are React Components?
Components are the building blocks of React applications.
They encapsulate reusable pieces of UI, allowing you to split the UI into independent, reusable
pieces, and think about each piece in isolation.

Components can be either class-based or functional.


Class Components: Class components are ES6 classes that extend React.Component.
They have a render() method that returns React elements.
They can hold and manage local state.
Example:
Class MyComponent extends Component{
​ constructor(props){
​ this.state= {
​ Count: 0
}
render(){
​ return(
​ <></>
)​
}
}
Functional Components:
Functional components are simple JavaScript functions that take props as an argument and
return React elements.
They are simpler and more concise compared to class components.
Const MyComponent =( )=>{
​ return(
​ ​ <></>
)
}

Key Concepts:

Reusability: Components are designed to be reused throughout the application, promoting


code maintainability and efficiency.
Composability: Components can be combined to build more complex UIs, allowing for
hierarchical UI structures.
State Management: Complex applications might benefit from dedicated state management
libraries like Redux or Context API to manage global application state.

React Router
React Router is a popular library for managing navigation within React applications. It provides
a declarative way to define routes, handle URL changes, and render components based on the
current URL.

REACT HOOKS​
React Hooks were introduced in React 16.8 as a way to add state and other functionalities to
functional components. They provide a more concise and easier-to-understand alternative to
traditional class-based components with lifecycle methods. Examples are usestate, useeffect,
useContext, useRef etc.

Rules of Hooks:
1.​ Hooks should only be called at the top level of a functional component or custom hook.
2.​ They should not be called conditionally or in nested functions.
3.​ Hooks should be called in the same order in every render of a component.
