Using Fragment for Cleaner JSX in React
React Fragments allow you to return multiple elements from a component's render method without creating an additional DOM element. They help in wrapping up multiple elements, leading to a cleaner and more readable JSX.
Here is an example of its usage:
import React, { Fragment } from 'react';
function Component() {
return (
<Fragment>
<h1>Title</h1>
<p>Description</p>
</Fragment>
);
}
As you can see, instead of a div or any other wrapper, we are using Fragment which doesn't add any extra nodes to the DOM. This results in a more optimized and efficient code.
You can also use the short syntax for Fragments:
function Component() {
return (
<>
<h1>Title</h1>
<p>Description</p>
</>
);
}
This reduces clutter in your JSX and aids in making your code cleaner and easier to understand. Happy coding!
