Can you pass a React component as a prop? Explain Render Props.
Tests React composition. Yes, functions and JSX are valid prop values. Strong answers explain inversion of control, contrast with children, and cite dynamic layouts. Red flag: conflating render props with HOCs or saying props only accept primitives.
Tests deep knowledge of React composition patterns and whether you treat components as first-class values. Yes, any JavaScript value including functions and JSX elements can be passed as props. A strong answer covers: passing a component reference versus a render function, the inversion of control benefit, how it differs from the children prop, and a concrete use case like a MouseTracker or DataFetcher. Red flag: saying props only accept strings and numbers, or conflating the pattern with HOCs without explaining the trade-offs.
