React: How to Pass Props to Child Components

In React, it is common to have a hierarchy of components where props are passed from a top component to its children. In situations where you want to pass all the props from the parent component to its children without altering them, there is a simpler and more flexible approach.

Instead of manually passing each prop, you can use the spread operator, which allows you to pass all the props to the child component in a concise and error-free manner.

const IntermediateComponent = (props) => {
  return (
    <ChildComponent {...props} />
  );
};

By using the spread operator ({...props}), all the props from the parent component will be passed to the ChildComponent without explicitly mentioning each prop. This makes the code easier to read and maintain, as you don’t need to update the intermediate component every time the props change.

Using the spread operator is a more efficient and streamlined approach for passing props to child components in React.
