React js Data Types

admin Avatar

ReactJS is a JavaScript library that is used for building user interfaces. As such, it does not have its own data type. Instead, it uses the data types that are available in JavaScript. Here are some of the data types that are commonly used in ReactJS:

  • Strings: A sequence of characters that is enclosed in single or double quotes.
  • Numbers: Numeric data types, including integers and floating-point numbers.
  • Booleans: A data type that has two possible values – true or false.
  • Objects: A collection of key-value pairs.
  • Arrays: An ordered collection of elements.
  • Functions: A reusable block of code that performs a specific task.
  • Null: A special value that represents the absence of any object value.
  • Undefined: A variable that has been declared but has not been assigned a value.

In addition to these standard data types, React also makes use of JSX, which is an extension of JavaScript that allows developers to write HTML-like code in their JavaScript files. However, JSX is ultimately transpiled into JavaScript, so it still uses the same data types as JavaScript.

Here are some examples of using different data types in ReactJS:

STRINGS:

const greeting = ‘Hello World!’;

return <h1>{greeting}</h1>;

Numbers:

const price = 9.99;

return <p>The price is ${price}</p>;

Booleans:

const isLoggedIn = true;

return isLoggedIn ? <p>Welcome back!</p> : <p>Please log in.</p>;

Objects:

const user = { name: ‘John’, age: 25 };

return <p>{user.name} is {user.age} years old.</p>;

Arrays:

const colors = [‘red’, ‘green’, ‘blue’];

return <ul>{colors.map(color => <li>{color}</li>)}</ul>;

Functions:

function handleClick() {

  alert(‘Button clicked!’);

}

return <button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</button>;

Null:

Advertisements

const errorMessage = null;

return errorMessage ? <p>{errorMessage}</p> : null;

Undefined:

let variable;

return <p>{variable}</p>;

Note that these examples assume that the necessary imports and setup have been done, and that the JSX code is being transpiled into JavaScript using a tool like Babel.
