What is the difference between using constructor vs getInitialState in React?
Answer Posted / Rahil Saeed
In React, both the constructor and getInitialState methods are used to initialize a component's state. However, since version 16.0, getInitialState has been deprecated in favor of using the constructor method. The main difference is that constructor provides more flexibility as it accepts arguments (via super()), and allows you to bind 'this' to event handlers.
