          This is an example of error boundaries in React 16.
          <br /><br />
          Click on the numbers to increase the counters.
          <br />
          The counter is programmed to throw when it reaches 5. This simulates a JavaScript error in a component.
        </b>
      </p>
      <hr />
      <ErrorBoundary>
        <p>These two counters are inside the same error boundary. If one crashes, the error boundary will replace both of them.</p>
        <BuggyCounter />
        <BuggyCounter />
      </ErrorBoundary>
      <hr />
      <p>These two counters are each inside of their own error boundary. So if one crashes, the other is not affected.</p>

      <ErrorBoundary><BuggyCounter /></ErrorBoundary>
