React Event Handling Guide 2025
React.js Event Handling
In React, event handling is similar to HTML, but event names are written in camelCase, and event handler functions are passed as references.
Synthetic Events
React wraps native browser events into SyntheticEvent objects, ensuring compatibility across different browsers.
Example Code
Naming Conventions
- Use camelCase for event names (e.g., onClick
, onChange
).
- Prefix function names with handle
(e.g., handleClick
).
