[React] Render Basic SVG Components in React

React loves svg just as much as it loves html. In this lesson we cover how simple it is to make SVG components in ReactJS.

Creating SVG components with React allows you to inline SVG. Inline SVG has an advantage that it can be styled with CSS just like the rest of your webpage and doesn't need a separate web request to load.

An additional advantage is of-course that you can use component props to customize the contents of the SVG.
