How to use escape characters in JSX React components?

To use escape characters in JSX React components, we can use the same ones as plain JavaScript.

JavaScript escape characters include:

• ' single quote
• " double quote
• backslash
• n new line
• r carriage return
• t tab
• b backspace
• f form feed

We can also use HTML escape characters in JSX.

To do so, we can put them directly between the element’s tags.

For instance, we can write:

import React from "react";

export default function App() {
  return <div>First &middot; Second</div>;
}

Then we get ‘First · Second’ as a result.
