   {todo.text}
 </li>
);

Component Example

import React, {Component} from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'; 

class Parent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {name: "Frarthur"};
  }
  render() {
    return <div></div>;
  }  
};

Passing Props to child

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { Child } from './Child';

class Parent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = { name: 'Frarthur' };
  }

  render() {
    return <Child name={this.state.name} />;
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<Parent />, document.getElementById('app'));

Child.json

import React from 'react';

export class Child extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <h1>Hey, my name is {this.props.name}!</h1>;
