Pure JS React
Ultimatley, you want to use a build tool like Vite or a framework like Next.js, but before any of that, I want to show you the simplest way, which is to use the React CDN. You would not use this method for a production application, but it is a nice way to get started and see how React works.
If you go to it will show you some different ways to get started. The `React.createElement` function is how you create elements in React. It's important to mention that this is very low level.
JSX React
JSX stand for JavaScript XML. It's a syntax extension for JavaScript that looks similar to XML or HTML. It's a lot easier to read and write than using `React.createElement`.
However, JSX is not valid JavaScript. It needs to be transpiled to JavaScript before it can be run in the browser.
This is where Babel comes in. Babel is a JavaScript compiler that can convert JSX into JavaScript. It's a tool that is commonly used in React projects to convert modern JavaScript into a version that can run in any browser.
When you use a build tool like Vite or the older Create React App or Next.js, you don't have to worry about any of this. We're kind of looking at the engine of the car before we drive it. Driving the car is easier and a lot more fun, but it's good to know how it works.
Lưu ý:
JSX luôn yêu cầu return phải nằm trong 1 tag đóng và mở, ví dụ <div>...</div> chèn component khác thì chỉ có đóng chứ không có mở, <Header /> vì vậy, nếu không có tag đóng mở, hoặc nếu bắt đầu bằng 1 component, thì phải đóng mở bằng <> hoặc chính là <React.Fragment> có thể sử dụng các biến, hàm, JS bên trong các dấu {} Không sử dụng được normal JS syntax (như IF) là cũng vì dấu {}, đó là lý do chính phải học React JS, hoặc viết dài dòng hơn bên ngoài JSX một số property name cần phải thay đổi: class to className , for to forHTML
