0 0 1 minute read

Unicode: Unicode is an encoding standard for all characters in the universe. Every language code and symbol in this world is assigned by Unicode. There is no encoding standard that supports all languages, By using Unicode standard, we can retrieve and combine data with all language combinations.

Example:

U+2192

In the above example, a right-facing arrow is represented in Unicode by U+2192.

How to concatenate Unicode and variable in ReactJS: To concatenate we first convert Unicode into its numerical value and for that, we will use parseInt.

parseInt(Unicode,base)

Now, this numerical value needs to be converted into its character and for that, we can use

String.fromCodePoint(numericalValue).

Example: Make the following changes to your App.js file

App.js

import React from 'react'
    const App = ({ unicode }) => { 
  
    return( 
  
       <h1> 
           This is a Right arrow 
           {String.fromCodePoint(parseInt(unicode,16))} 
       </h1> 
   )} 
export default App;

Now import this App.js file in your index.js file(by default it is already being imported) and pass the value of Unicode in the App component.

index.js

import React from 'react'; 
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'; 
import App from './App'; 
  
    ReactDOM.render( 
    <React.StrictMode> 
       <App unicode='2192'/> 
    </React.StrictMode>, 
  
   document.getElementById('root') 
  
    );

Now run the local server using the following command within the react-app directory

npm start
