What is list Rendering?

• List are very useful when it comes to developing the UI of any website.

• List are mainly used for displaying list of things in a website.

  Ex- list of products, list of names, list of courses etc.

• In react ,you will render lists with some type of loop.

• The javascript map() array method is generally the preferred method.

list render a array

import React from 'react'

 function User() {
   const student =["ANKU","MANKU","ANKI","MANKI"];
   return (
     <div>
       {student.map(std => <h1>{std}</h1> )}
     </div>
   )
 }

list render a object

function User() {
  const student =[
    {
      name:"manki",
      age:23
    },
    {
      name:"anki",
      age:23
    },
    {
      name:"anku",
      age:22
    }
  ]
  return (
    <div>
      {student.map(std => <h1>i am {std.name} and age is {std.age}</h1>)}
    </div>
  )
}

call component in map method

function User() {
  const student =[
    {
      name:"manki",
      age:23
    },
    {
      name:"anki",
      age:23
    },
    {
      name:"anku",
      age:22
    }
  ]
  return (
    <div>
      {student.map(std => <App stds={std}/> ) }
    </div>
  )
}

function App({stds}) { 
return (
    <div>
      <h1>i am {stds.name} and age is {stds.age}</h1>)}
    </div>
  )
}

• map() create a new array from calling a function for every array elements.

• map() calls a function once for each element in an erray.

• map() does not execute the function for empty elements.

• map() does not change the original array.

List and Keys

• Keys allow react to keep track pf elements.

• This way, if an intern is updated or removed, only that item will be re-rendered instead of the entire list.

• Keys need to be unique to each sibling.

• Generally the key should be a unique id assigned to each items. As a last resort, you can use the array index as a key.

• A key is a special string attribute you need to include whe creating list of elements in react.

• keys are used to react to identify which items in the list are changed, updated or deleted.

function User() {
  const student = ["anki","anku","manki","manku"];
  let studentname = student.map((std, index) => <li key={index}>{std}</li>);
  return (
    <div>
      {<ul> {studentname} </ul>}
    </div>
  )
}

list without keys in react

warning:- Each child in an array or iterator should have a unique "key" prop.
