By convention, all React parts that are made along these lines must acquire from the React.Component class.
The first thing we need to do is import both the React and ReactDOM classes. Add these lines to the top of those files:
import React from 'react'; import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';Create files in our example folder called entry.js, App.js & index.html and add some code to it.
$ touch entry.js $ touch App.js $ touch index.html Open entry.js and add below code
import React from 'react'; import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'; import App from './App.js'; ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('app'));Open App.js and add below code
import React from 'react'; import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'; export default class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <h1> Hello World !... </h1> ) } }Open index.html and add below code
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>React App</title> </head> <body> <div id="app"></div> <script src="main.js"></script> </body> </html>We done with our coding. Time to see our output. To see the output run the server.
