Aurooba and Brian are back with the series on building with React inside WordPress! In this episode, they dive into how state works in React and why ternary expressions are more common in JavaScript than they are in PHP. They break down the code of the accordion they've been building in React over the course of this series, focussing on exactly how it manages which item stays open or closed.
