Composing components

In React, all components can be isolated and complex UIs can be built by composing components which enables their re-usability.

Getting ready

In this recipe, you will work with re-usable components to generate a home page containing three sections: a header, a paragraph with a description, and a footer. These three sections will be written as three separate components that will be composed later to build a home page. Before you start, create a new package.json file with the following content:

{ 
  "scripts": { 
    "start": "parcel serve -p 1337 index.html" 
  }, 
  "devDependencies": { 
    "babel-plugin-transform-class-properties": "6.24.1"...
