Formula
Conditions - if statementsReact supports if statements, but not inside JSX. To be able to use conditional statements in JSX, you should put the if statements outside of the JSX, or you could use a ternary expression instead:
Write if statements outside of the JSX code:
Write "Banana" if x is less than 10, otherwise "Apple":
function Fruit() {
const x = 5;
let y = "Apple";
if (x < 10) {
y = "Banana";
}return (
<h1>{y}</h1>
);
}Example »
Write "Banana" if x is less than 10, otherwise "Apple":
function Fruit() {
const x = 5;
return (
<h1>{(x) < 10 ? "Banana" : "Apple"}</h1>
);
}Example » Note that in order to embed a JavaScript expression inside JSX, the JavaScript must be wrapped with curly braces,
{}.
