Conditional Rendering in ReactJS Using if-else Statements

ReactJS utilizes JSX (JavaScript XML) to render user interfaces. However, conventional if-else statements are not supported directly within JSX due to its nature as a syntactic sugar for function calls.

To conditionally render elements, there are two recommended approaches:

1. Ternary Operator:

   • Use a ternary operator (? :) to evaluate a condition and return different elements based on the result.

   render() {
      return (
         

2. Helper Function:

   • Create a helper function that encapsulates the conditional logic.

   renderElement() {
      if (this.state.value === 'news')
         return data
      return null;
   }
   
   render() {
      return (
         

Remember, these methods allow conditional rendering within a React component without modifying scenes or changing the component's structure. They provide flexibility to dynamically display content based on state changes or other conditional logic.
