How to Easily Break Lines in a Custom JSX Tag in React

When working with React, you may encounter situations where you need to format text in specific ways. One common issue developers face is implementing line breaks in a custom JSX tag. In this post, we’ll explore a scenario where you want to break lines in a job description within a custom component.

The Challenge: Breaking Lines in JSX

Consider the following JSX code snippet where you want to include multiple points in a job description:

In this example, you want to add a line break after the second point in the job description. Tried methods like using \n or <br /> tags may not work as expected since strings in JSX do not render HTML elements.

The Solution: Passing JSX Components as Props

Instead of using just string text for the jobDescription prop, we can pass a JSX component. This approach provides greater flexibility and allows for better control over how the content is displayed.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

Modify the Parent Component:
Create a parent component where you will define the job description using JSX rather than a raw string.

Conclusion

Incorporating line breaks in custom JSX tags can be seamless by passing JSX components as props instead of simple strings. This method not only solves your issue of line breaking but also enhances the overall structure and readability of your code.

By following the above steps, you can easily implement formatting in any component in your React application. This approach empowers you to create a flexible user interface that meets your specific design needs.
