Using passed in props in react class methods

To make use of a prop, passed in or down from a parent component. You first created a constructor for the class. Check the code below:

class SomeClass extends Component {
   Constructor(props) {
       super(props);
       this.props = props; 
   }

   someMethod = () => {
       console.log(this.props)
   }
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Weird! Thought it will happen some other way.
