What is react route?

Question

React

Explain in simple terms what is react-route? What is it for? Is it a must have or can you do without it?

Answer 1

A library that allows you to use client-side routing. If your application implies navigating through application pages with url substitution in the browser and without reloading the page (SPA), then yes, you need client-side routing. You can use react-router-dom , or you can write your own router. The first option will save you a lot of time, is easy to use, and you can always find standard solutions to most problems on the Internet. The second option is only suitable for self-development.

Answer 2

Here in the text / video we make a primitive router (as in react router 4). Perhaps it will add to your understanding.
