Converting tables to grids with React compound components

The article outlines the process of creating a user admin dashboard with a dynamic layout in a React application, allowing users to toggle between table and grid views. It introduces the LayoutSwitch component, which utilizes React's compound components pattern and Context API to manage layout state and rendering logic. The tutorial begins with setting up a React app using Create React App, then explains how to build the UsersTable and UsersGrid components to display user data fetched from a JSON Placeholder API. The LayoutSwitch component, along with its child components such as Options and Button, enables users to switch between different layouts by controlling the active layout state. The article also covers how to validate components within LayoutSwitch using React's isValidElement and how to export components effectively for better modularity. The final setup demonstrates how to integrate these components into the App component, allowing for a seamless user experience when switching layouts.
