How can values be passed between React sibling components?

In React, communication between sibling components is typically done by passing props through a common parent component. Here are some common methods for passing data between sibling components.

  1. State lifting: elevating shared states to their common parent component, and then passing the states to sibling components through props.
  2. Callback function in parent component: Define a callback function in the parent component and pass it as props to a sibling component. The sibling component can then call this callback function to pass data to the parent component, which can then pass the data to another sibling component.
  3. Using the Context API in React allows you to create a context in a parent component where shared data can be stored. Sibling components can access this data in the context using the useContext hook or Consumer component.
  4. Utilizing third-party state management libraries such as Redux or MobX allows for sharing data throughout any part of the application, enabling sibling components to pass data through subscribing and dispatching operations.

These methods can be selected based on specific needs and scenarios, and they all can achieve data transmission between sibling components.
