Conditional CSS in React

Toggle classes from state: className={ok ? 'alert ok' : 'alert bad'}. Or template strings: `btn ${active ? 'btn-on' : ''}`. Libraries: clsx, classnames. Prefer classes over swapping ten inline colors — CSS can animate and theme them.

Conditional CSS in React — ok false → alert bad + Failed. Class changes with state.

Exam tip

className ternary from state.

Example

// Conditional CSS
export default function Alert({ ok }) {
  return <p className={ok ? "alert ok" : "alert bad"}>{ok ? "Saved" : "Failed"}</p>;
}

Conditional CSS in React — ok false → alert bad + Failed. Class changes with state.

Short notes

  • RuleOr clsx().
  • RememberPrefer classes over inline rainbows.
