Discussion on: What's With All the Props Anyway?

[Florian Rand]

Just want to mention that not every time we need to pass props. That's why functional components exist, like this one:

import React from 'react';

const Card = ({ id, name, email }) => (
  <div className="card-container">
    <img alt="Robot" src={`https://robohash.org/${id}?200x200`} />
    <div>
      <h2>{name}</h2>
      <p>{email}</p>
    </div>
  </div>
);

export default Card;

Great article btw!

Absolutely! And a great thing to point out. I wanted to focus on the boilerplate code in the cli and tutorials, but you're 100% correct that it can be overkill, and it's good to know about the alternatives!
