What are forward refs? in REACT

Practice



forward refs Forwarding refs is a feature that lets some components take the refs that they receive and pass them further down to a child.

 

const ButtonElement = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => (
  <button ref={ref} className="CustomButton">
    {props.children}
  </button>
));

// Create ref to the DOM button:
const ref = React.createRef();
<ButtonElement ref={ref}>{'Forward Ref'}</ButtonElement>
