In JavaScript, a component is a reusable piece of code that can be used to create UI elements. Components can be created in many ways, but one of the most popular frameworks for creating components is React.
To create a component in JavaScript using React, you start by defining a function that returns some HTML to render. Here is an example of a basic React component:
61 chars4 lines
In this example, MyComponent
is a function that returns a JSX expression. JSX is a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows you to write HTML-like code in your JavaScript files.
To use this component, you can simply render it to the DOM using ReactDOM.render:
67 chars2 lines
This will render the MyComponent
component inside the element with the ID "root".
Of course, this is a very basic example, and React components can become much more complex. However, the basic idea is the same: define a function that returns some HTML, and then render that HTML to the DOM using ReactDOM.render.
