What is Props?
Data passed from a parent component to a child component to customise its appearance or behaviour
Why It Matters
Props let you create flexible, reusable components that can display different content
Real-World Example
A Button component receives props like colour='blue' and text='Submit' to customise it
“Understanding terms like Props matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
