The Syntax of JSX and How to Compile It
JSX is a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows writing HTML elements in JavaScript code. It's a way to write UI (user interface) structures declaratively. JSX is widely used in React to describe what the UI should look like.
Synopsis:
JSX allows us to write HTML code within JavaScript and is processed by React to create UI elements. Although the code we write in JSX looks like HTML, it is actually JavaScript and must be compiled by a compiler like Babel.
- 1. Basic syntax:
JSX allows writing HTML tags within JavaScript similarly to how we would write in HTML.
- 2. JSX Compilation:
Although JSX looks like HTML, it is actually JavaScript that must be transformed by tools like Babel so it can be understood by the browser.
- 3. Using JSX in React:
JSX is used in React to render dynamic content in the user interface.
Purpose:
- To allow a more declarative way of writing UI in React.
- To make component creation more readable and manageable.
- To provide a bridge between JavaScript and HTML for better integration.
