Let's face it! A good number of React developers do not really understand how state is tracked across different component re-renders. A common pitfall is not knowing when a component's state will be preserved and when it will be reset. We could infer...

I don't think I have ever then taken advantage of the "Key" prop with the example you gave Emmanuel O. Eboh.

Just out of curiosity, if the key props weren't used what would have happened?

The state would have been preserved. Feel free to check the React docs for more examples on how you can utilize the key prop.

Alright, make sense Emmanuel O. Eboh

Nice article Captain. It really gives detailed explanation of how state is tracked, preserved and destroyed in React.

Thank you for the kind feedback! it means a lot to me.

Great piece boss

"Never Nest A Component Definition Within Another Component!". Can you maybe show example of these?.

Yes thank you for helping out with the explanation! Chrismarcel James

Hey Chrismarcel James, you make use of markdown. I found your example hard to read, maybe rewrite it with markdown using the triple backtick character

I certainly wasn't aware of this. Thank you so much for such an amazing article!!!

Let me submit this to daily dev, more people deserve to know this.

Thank you so much Tobi, I just updated the article, so feel free to submit it!
