ReactJs State

“And I believe state adds the greatest value to React.”

State allows us to create components that are dynamic and interactive. State is private, it must not be manipulated from the outside. Also, it is important to know when to use ‘state’, it is generally used with data that is bound to change. For example, when we click a toggle button it changes from ‘inactive’ to ‘active’ state. State is used only when needed, make sure it is used in render() otherwise don’t include it in the state. We do not use ‘state’ with static components. The state can only be set inside the constructor. Let’s include some code snippets to explain the same

Binding is needed explicitly, as by default the event is not bound to the component.
