Passing props is a more complicated method for some beginners. Some people easily pass the props from parents to child just like that.

Pass props parents to child

const Child = ({myProps})=>{
  return(
    <h1>{myProps}</h1>
  )
}
export default function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <h1>Code Components</h1>
      <h2>Make eassy your codding life!</h2>
      <Child myProps={"codecomponents.in"}/>
    </div>
  );
}

Another way to pass props parents to child

const Child = (props)=>{
  return(
    <h1>{props.myProps}</h1>
  )
}
export default function App() {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <h1>Code Components</h1>
      <h2>Make eassy your codding life!</h2>
      <Child myProps={"codecomponents.in"}/>
    </div>
  );
}

Pass Props child to parents

But the issue is when people try to pass props from child to parent, they often make a mistake. Here, I solve the issue.

import { useState } from "react";

const Child = ({ onDataFromChild }) => {

  const sendDataToParent = () => {
    const data = "codecomponents.in";
    onDataFromChild(data);
  };

  return <button onClick={sendDataToParent}>Send Props</button>;
};

export default function App() {
  const [dataFromChild, setDataFromChild] = useState();

  const handleDataFromChild = (data) => {setDataFromChild(data);};

  return (
    <div className="App">

      <Child onDataFromChild={handleDataFromChild} />
      <h2>Child Data is :- {dataFromChild}</h2>

    </div>
  );
}

That's the best communication between a parent and a child component in React.
