The beauty of functional components is their simplicity. They are stateless components without any data, computed properties, or even life cycles. They are just render functions that are called when the data that has been passed changes.
You may be wondering how this can be useful. Well, a functional component is a perfect companion for UI components that don't need to keep any data inside them, or visual components that are just rendered components that don't require any data manipulation.
As the name implies, they are similar to function components, and they have nothing more than the render function. They are a stripped-down version of a component that's used exclusively for performance rendering and visual elements.
