React - onClick example
3
points
In this article, we would like to show you how to use onClick event in React.
Quick solution:
<button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</button>
Practical example
In below example, we pass external handleClick arrow function to the button's onClick property that handles mouse click event.
Runnable example:
// ONLINE-RUNNER:browser;
// Note: Uncomment import lines while working with JSX Compiler.
// import React from 'react';
const handleClick = () => {
console.log('handleClick catched');
};
const App = () => {
return (
<div className="App">
<button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</button>
</div>
);
};
const root = document.querySelector('#root');
ReactDOM.render(<App />, root );
