✨ Features
<IfElse>Wrapper: A powerful wrapper component that orchestrates your conditional logic.<If>Component: Renders content only if itsconditionprop istrue.<ElIf>Component: (Else If) Renders content if itsconditionistrueAND all precedingIf/ElIfconditions within the same<IfElse>block werefalse.<Else>Component: Renders content if no precedingIforElIfconditions within the same<IfElse>block weretrue.<Switch>Component: A declarative container that evaluates a value prop against multiple<Case>conditions. Only the first matching<Case>(or the<Default>) will render.<Case>Component: Renders content if its condition prop (or a specific value prop, depending on your implementation) matches the value prop of the parent<Switch>component.<Default>Component: Renders content if no preceding<Case>components within the same<Switch>block had a matching condition. This acts as the fallback for a Switch statement.
📦 Installation
Install react-if-then-else-switch using npm or yarn:
npm install react-if-then-else-switch
# OR
yarn add react-if-then-else-switch
🤔 Why react-if-then-else-switch?
While React's native JSX conditionals (&&, ? :) are powerful, they can lead to:
- Nested Ternary Hell: Deeply nested ? : can quickly become unreadable and hard to maintain.
- Verbose && Chains: Multiple && operators for else if logic can be awkward and less explicit.
- Lack of Structure: It can be hard to visually parse complex conditional blocks.
react-if-then-else-switch offers:
- Improved Readability: Declarative components clearly indicate conditional blocks.
- Structural Clarity: Your JSX visually reflects the if-else if-else flow.
- Reduced Boilerplate: No need for manual wrapping of expressions for else conditions.
