Instructor:

"Hi there, and welcome back! In the last video, we learned how to use props to pass data to components and make them dynamic.

In this video, we’re taking it a step further by diving into:

• Passing props to child components.
• Default props and how to validate props using PropTypes.
• The challenges of managing deeply nested props, known as the prop drilling issue, and how to recognize it.

By the end of this session, you’ll have a solid understanding of props and their role in React, as well as an awareness of when prop drilling becomes a problem. Let’s get started!"

1. Understanding Props

Instructor:

"Props are how data flows in React—from parent components to child components. Let’s quickly revisit how props work with a practical example."

Example: Passing Props to Child Components

Instructor:

"Let’s create a simple app that displays user profiles using a UserProfile component.

1. Create a new file called UserProfile.js in the src folder.
2. Write the following code:

import React from 'react';

function UserProfile(props) {
    return (
        <div className="user-profile">
            <h2>{props.name}</h2>
            <p>Age: {props.age}</p>
            <p>Location: {props.location}</p>
        </div>
    );
}

export default UserProfile;
