## What are Components?
|
|
|
|
Components are the building blocks of Yew. They manage an internal state and can render elements to the DOM.
|
|
Components are created by implementing the `Component` trait for a type.
|
|
|
|
## Writing Component's markup
|
|
|
|
Yew uses Virtual DOM to render elements to the DOM. The Virtual DOM tree can be constructed by using the
|
|
`html!` macro. `html!` uses a syntax which is similar to HTML but is not the same. The rules are also
|
|
much stricter. It also provides superpowers like conditional rendering and rendering of lists using iterators.

## Passing data to a component
|
|
|
|
Yew components use _props_ to communicate between parents and children. A parent component may pass any data as props to
|
|
its children. Props are similar to HTML attributes but any Rust type can be passed as props.
