Implementing Search in React with React Router

🚀 Built a Search Feature in React! Today I worked on implementing a simple yet powerful search functionality using React and React Router. 🔍 What I learned: * Managing input state using `useState` * Handling form submission properly with `preventDefault()` * Using `useNavigate` for dynamic routing * Passing search queries via URL parameters 💡 Key idea: Instead of storing search globally, we can pass it through the URL like: `/search?query=yourText` This makes the feature scalable and shareable. 🧠 Here’s a simplified version of the logic: ```jsx const handleSearch = (e) => { e.preventDefault(); if (!search.trim()) return; navigate(`/search?query=${search}`); setSearch(""); }; ``` ✨ Small steps like this build the foundation for larger applications. Next, I’m planning to: * Read query params on the results page * Implement live search (without submit) * Add debouncing for performance #React #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #Frontend #LearningInPublic
