How to Dynamically Add Elements and Classes in React: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you're new to React and have been grappling with how to dynamically manipulate the DOM, you're not alone! A common task in React applications is to render elements based on user input. In this guide, we will explore a practical example – creating a small app that highlights consonants and vowels in user-inputted text.

The Problem

You want to build an app where users can input text, and the app dynamically highlights consonants and vowels. At first glance, this seems straightforward, but if you're unfamiliar with React, you might hesitate when it comes to handling user input and rendering new elements.

The Solution

Let’s break down how to create a dynamic highlighting feature step by step. We will start with your existing code and enhance it.

Step 1: Setting Up Your Component

You began with a functional component AnalysisArea, where you split the input text into individual characters. Here's the skeleton of what you already have:

Step 2: Managing State

To display the highlighted characters only when the user clicks the "Analyse" button, we need to manage the display state. We can achieve this using the useState hook. Here’s how to set it up:

Step 3: Defining a Helper Function

Next, we’ll define a function that determines whether a character is a vowel or consonant. This function will return the appropriate class name:

Step 4: Rendering the Highlighted Text

Now, we can render the transformed text when the user clicks the "Analyse" button. We'll use Array.prototype.map() to create a span for each character, applying the correct class:

Step 5: Finalizing the Component

Putting everything together, here is your complete AnalysisArea component:

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully created a React component that dynamically adds elements and applies CSS classes based on user input. This technique can be a powerful tool when building interactive applications. Always remember to manage your state properly and use the map() function to render elements dynamically!

By mastering these fundamental concepts, you'll be better equipped to tackle more complex problems in React. Happy coding!
