My process

Built with

• Astro
• React
• Tailwind CSS

What I learned

In Astro, we need to include a directive called client:load to enable the use of React's useEffect hook. This is because Astro renders static HTML pages by default. To make a component interactive, we must specify that it should be hydrated.

<MyReactComponent client:load />
