This example shows a very common use case when building websites where you need to repeat some sort of layout for all your pages. Our pages are: home
, about
and contact
and they all share the same <head>
settings, the <nav>
and the <footer>
. Further more, the title (and potentially other head elements) can be sent as a prop to the layout component so that it's customizable in all pages.
