How to use Rating Component in ReactJS ?

Rating Component helps capture the user feedback in form of rating. With the help of this feature, users can also rate the products they have purchased. Material UI for React has this component available for us, and it is very easy to integrate. We can use the following approach in ReactJS to use the Rating Component.

Creating React Application And Installing Module

• Step 1: Create a React application using the following command:

  npx create-react-app foldername

• Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. foldername, move to it using the following command:

  cd foldername

• Step 3: After creating the ReactJS application, Install the material-ui module using the following command:

  npm install @material-ui/core
  npm install @material-ui/lab

Project Structure: It will look like the following.

Example: Now write down the following code in the App.js file. Here, App is our default component where we have written our code.

import React from 'react';
import Rating from '@material-ui/lab/Rating';
import Typography from '@material-ui/core/Typography';
import Box from '@material-ui/core/Box';

export default function App() {

  const [ratingValue, setRatingValue] = React.useState(0);

  return (
    <div style={{ display: 'block', padding: 30 }}>
      <h4>How to use Rating Component in ReactJS?</h4>
      <Box component="fieldset" mb={3} borderColor="transparent">
        <Typography component="legend">
            Please Rate our app
        </Typography>
        <Rating
          name="Rating Label"
          value={ratingValue}
          onChange={(event, newValue) => {
            setRatingValue(newValue);
          }}
        />
      </Box>
    </div>
  );
}

Step to Run Application: Run the application using the following command from the root directory of the project:

npm start
