[React] React Fundamentals: Owner Ownee Relationship

The owner-ownee relationship is used to designate a parent-child relationship with React components as it differs from the DOM relationship.

When one component renders another component, this is what React refers to as the "owner-ownee relationship," where the parent component is also called a "composite component."

We are going to create a component call 'Widget' which will be used inside our 'React_app' component.

'Widget' doesn't have any state, all it has is from 'React_app' pass into it.

<Widget update={this.myUpdate} name={this.state.name}></Widget>
