Fix Uncaught Error Objects are not valid as a React child
This error might happen because you’ve got a React component and you’re rendering a prop in the JSX, like this, but you forgot to destructure the prop when initializing the component parameters:
function MyComponent(test) {
return <p>{test}</p>
}
You should do this instead:
function MyComponent({ test }) {
return <p>{test}</p>
}
The component receives a props
object and we commonly use object destructuring to get the props “mapped” to variables, like {test}
in our example.
