How to render a list of objects using React

[{"id":8,"name":"christoph","age":32,"number":"555-555-5555"},
{"id":9,"name":"debra","age":31,"number":"555-555-5555"},
{"id":10,"name":"eric","age":29,"number":"555-555-5555"},
{"id":19,"name":"richard","age":20,"number":"555-555-5555"},
{"id":14,"name":"santiago","age":25,"number":"(555)555-5555"}]

Backend dev here. (making a quick and scrappy project so please forgive me for asking a n00b question)

I need to render this using React in a Table format.

I looked at some examples like this codepen but it didn't help. Can anyone guide me to a Codepen or a starter prooject that I could look into to get this done? I am not able to figure out how to map over the objects of the array.

You can refer you to the documentation of React.JS thought this link

But for your case, if you want to render an array of object as a table you can do this using map array prototype in jsx.

const persons = [
  { id: 8, name: "christoph", age: 32, number: "555-555-5555" },
  { id: 9, name: "debra", age: 31, number: "555-555-5555" },
  { id: 10, name: "eric", age: 29, number: "555-555-5555" },
  { id: 19, name: "richard", age: 20, number: "555-555-5555" },
  { id: 14, name: "santiago", age: 25, number: "(555)555-5555" },
]

return (
  <table class="table">
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <th scope="col">#</th>
        <th scope="col">Name</th>
        <th scope="col">Age</th>
        <th scope="col">Number</th>
      </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
      {persons.map(person => (
        <tr key={person.id}>
          <th scope="row">{person.id}</th>
          <td>{person.name}</td>
          <td>{person.age}</td>
          <td>{person.number}</td>
        </tr>
      ))}
    </tbody>
  </table>
)

I think this should work.
