I have a question for a React file (I’ve just started).
Do I have to put text in App.tsx for example:
<h1>Hello World!</h1>,
or do I have to create a separate file like Text.tsx and import it into App.tsx?
Thanks for your help!
I’ve looked everywhere on the Internet, but I haven’t found a site that talks about this subject.

It’s completey up to you how you want to split out your App into various components. You can achieve the same result by doing either of your suggestions.
I would recommend reading up on the React docs about components. You never have to create Components for different elements, but during your learning you’ll understand what works for you and the App you’re creating.
In my opinion, it’s best to add your text in
index.tsx
or.jsx
. In any case, it’s important to know that later on, yourapp.tsx
won’t receive text, but rather libraries to assist you in working or retrieving information about your project. I’m currently thinking about Redux or React Router. Personally, I never touchapp.tsx
because I use_document.tsx
for Next.js (https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/routing/custom-document). Alternatively, for vanilla React, I suggest you take a look at this link: https://blog.floxus.co/best-practice-to-manage-folder-structure-for-reactjs.So, in conclusion, for an example or testing, you can put the information in
app.tsx
, but in the future, for larger projects, I think that won’t work.
