Read: 28 - Component Lifecycle

Why do we not need more .html pages in a multi-page React app?

Because we use routes to connect to one app.

If we wanted a component to show up on every page, where would we put it and why?

Outside of a route.

What does routing do with the components that were rendered when a new route is requested

It unmounts it or hides it somewhere else so you can’t see it.

What does props.children contain?

content between the opening and closing tags of the containing component

How do useState() and this.setState() differ?

Vocab:

State Hook: a special function that lets you “hook into” React features.

Mounting and Un-Mounting: mounts a storage device or filesystem, making it accessible and attaching it to an existing directory structure. The umount command “unmounts” a mounted filesystem, informing the system to complete any pending read or write operations, and safely detaching it
