Summary of "#25: Event Propagation in React: Capturing, Bubbling, and Practical Implementation馃敟"
Video Summary
In this video, Vinod Badur Thapa discusses event propagation in React, focusing on the concepts of capturing, bubbling, and practical implementation. The key points covered include:
-
event propagation Overview:
- event propagation refers to how events travel through the DOM when they are triggered.
- There are three phases of event propagation: capturing, target, and bubbling.
-
Capturing Phase:
- The event starts from the root of the DOM and moves down to the target element.
- It checks for events in the hierarchy, firing them as it traverses down.
-
Bubbling Phase:
- The opposite of capturing, where the event starts from the target element and bubbles up to the root.
- Events are fired in reverse order, starting from the target and moving up through its ancestors.
-
React's event propagation:
- React follows the same event propagation model as JavaScript.
- The video emphasizes that understanding these concepts is crucial for effective React development.
-
Practical Implementation:
- Vinod demonstrates how to implement event propagation in a React component, showing how to handle clicks on child, parent, and grandparent elements.
- He explains how to use the
stopPropagationmethod to prevent events from bubbling up.
-
Capturing in React:
- Unlike JavaScript, React provides a built-in way to handle capturing through the
onClickevent by passing a capturing phase argument.
- Unlike JavaScript, React provides a built-in way to handle capturing through the

Project Example:
- Vinod references a previous project involving a periodic table, illustrating how event propagation is utilized in real-world applications.
