Handling Events

In React, handling user events and adding interactivity to components is done using event handlers. Event handlers are functions that are executed when a specific event occurs, such as a button click or a form submission.

To handle events in React, you can define event handler functions and attach them to the corresponding event attribute in JSX.

1import React from 'react';
2
3function MyComponent() {
4  function handleClick() {
5    // Code logic to handle click event
6  }
7
8  return (
9    <button onClick={handleClick}>Click Me</button>
10  );
11}
12
13export default MyComponent;

In the example above, we have a component called MyComponent that renders a button. The handleClick function is defined inside the component and handles the click event of the button.

When the button is clicked, the handleClick function is executed, allowing you to perform any desired logic or update the component's state.

Add interactivity to your React components by attaching event handlers to the appropriate elements and defining the desired behavior in the corresponding event handler functions.
