Pratik TamhaneIn this follow-up post, we'll continue exploring more ways to implement conditional rendering in both CSS and React.js. These techniques will help you build dynamic and responsive UIs with ease!
1. Conditional Rendering using CSS Variables
You can conditionally change styles in CSS using CSS variables and update them in your React components.
/* CSS */
:root {
--bg-color: white;
}
.conditional-div {
background-color: var(--bg-color);
}
.dark-mode {
--bg-color: black;
color: white;
}
Example (React.js):
const Example1 = ({ isDarkMode }) => {
return (
<div className={isDarkMode ? "dark-mode conditional-div" : "conditional-div"}>
Conditional CSS Variables based on dark mode!
</div>
);
};
2. Conditional Rendering with Pseudo-Classes in CSS
You can conditionally style elements in CSS based on hover, focus, and active states using pseudo-classes.
/* CSS */
.conditional-button {
background-color: blue;
color: white;
}
.conditional-button:hover {
background-color: red;
}
Example (React.js):
const Example2 = () => {
return <button className="conditional-button">Hover to Change Color</button>;
};
3. Conditional Rendering with CSS Animations
You can conditionally apply animations to elements using class changes.
/* CSS */
@keyframes slideIn {
from {
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
to {
transform: translateX(0);
}
}
.slide-in {
animation: slideIn 1s forwards;
}
Example (React.js):
const Example3 = ({ shouldSlideIn }) => {
return (
<div className={shouldSlideIn ? "slide-in" : ""}>
I slide in based on condition!
</div>
);
};
4. Conditional Rendering with :nth-child Selector in CSS
You can conditionally apply styles to specific children of an element using :nth-child.
/* CSS */
.parent-div > div:nth-child(odd) {
background-color: lightblue;
}
Example (React.js):
const Example4 = () => {
return (
<div className="parent-div">
<div>Item 1</div>
<div>Item 2</div>
<div>Item 3</div>
</div>
);
};
5. Conditional Rendering with React Portals
React Portals allow you to conditionally render elements outside the DOM hierarchy of the parent component
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
const Example5 = ({ showModal }) => {
return showModal
? ReactDOM.createPortal(
<div className="modal">This is a modal!</div>,
document.getElementById("modal-root")
)
: null;
};
6. Conditional Rendering with Multiple Classes in React
You can conditionally apply multiple classes to an element.
const Example6 = ({ isActive, isError }) => {
return (
<div className={`${isActive ? "active" : ""} ${isError ? "error" : ""}`}>
This div has conditional classes!
</div>
);
};
/* CSS */
.active {
background-color: green;
}
.error {
border: 2px solid red;
}
7. Conditional Rendering with Media Queries in CSS
You can use media queries to conditionally render styles based on the screen size.
/* CSS */
@media (max-width: 600px) {
.mobile-view {
background-color: yellow;
}
}
Example (React.js):
const Example7 = () => {
return <div className="mobile-view">This div changes color on small screens!</div>;
};
8. Conditional Rendering with React Fragments and Loops
You can conditionally render a list of items in React using loops and fragments.
const Example8 = ({ items }) => {
return (
<>
{items.length > 0 ? (
items.map((item, index) => <p key={index}>{item}</p>)
) : (
<p>No items to show</p>
)}
</>
);
};
9. Conditional Rendering with Styled-Components
Using styled-components, you can conditionally apply styles within your React components.
import styled from "styled-components";
const Box = styled.div`
background-color: ${(props) => (props.isPrimary ? "blue" : "gray")};
padding: 10px;
color: white;
`;
const Example9 = ({ isPrimary }) => {
return <Box isPrimary={isPrimary}>This is a styled component</Box>;
};
10. Conditional Rendering using Lazy Loading in React
With React.lazy, you can conditionally load components only when needed, improving performance.
import React, { Suspense } from "react";
const LazyComponent = React.lazy(() => import("./LazyComponent"));
const Example10 = ({ shouldLoad }) => {
return (
<div>
{shouldLoad ? (
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
) : (
<p>No component to load</p>
)}
</div>
);
};
