Basic example to pass values between parent and child components in React.
/**
* Basic example to pass values between parent and child components in React
* Seems to be in line with this
* http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24147331/react-the-right-way-to-pass-form-element-state-to-sibling-parent-elements
* Now I have the state in parent and child. Is that good or bad? Why would I need it in child?
* Could probably take that out

Folder Structure

Please note

While this gist has been shared and followed for years, I regret not giving more background. It was originally a gist for the engineering org I was in, not a "general suggestion" for any React app.

Typically I avoid folders altogether. Heck, I even avoid new files. If I can build an app with one 2000 line file I will. New files and folders are a pain.
