TreeView react Code Snippet in 2025

Renders a tree view of a JSON object or array with collapsible content.

• Use the value of the toggled prop to determine the initial state of the content (collapsed/expanded).
• Use the useState() hook to create the isToggled state variable and give it the value of the toggled prop initially.
• Render a <span> element and bind its onClick event to alter the component's isToggled state.
• Determine the appearance of the component, based on isParentToggled, isToggled, name and checking for Array.isArray() on data.
• For each child in data, determine if it is an object or array and recursively render a sub-tree or a text element with the appropriate style.
