Conditionally render components in React

I'm new to React and still learning my way around. I have a react page that renders a component that has 5 buttons. I'm trying to render another component based on which button is clicked. How can I achieve this?

You can achieve this by state usage. Useful for this goal being useState hook and conditional rendering in React. More info about it: https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-state.html

Example for your question:

function MyComponent() {
  const [isTextVisible, setIsTextVisible] = useState(false);
  
  return (
     <>
       <button onClick={() => { setIsTextVisible(true) }}>Click on Me!</button>
       { isTextVisible && <p>I am visible only after button click!</p> }
     <>
  )
}

In this example, when the button is clicked, the isTextVisible state will be filled with the true value. When isTextVisible will be equal true - text in condition will be visible. Text easily can be replaced by another your component.
