Props

PronunciationPROPS

Definition

Short for "properties": the inputs a parent passes down to a component, like a function's arguments.

Where you hear it

React tutorials and code reviews.

Examples

  • Pass the user name to the card through props.
  • Props are read-only, so do not change them inside the component.

Common mistake

Passing props through five levels of components ("prop drilling"). Consider context or a state library.
