How can I use all the React events with Material-UI components

Question

With the help of code can you explain How can I use all the React events with Material-UI components?

Answer 1

The best approach is to leverage the built-in props of MUI components. MUI components extend standard HTML elements, meaning you can pass any valid React event handlers like onClick, onChange, onMouseEnter, etc.

Pass Event Handlers as Props 

MUI components accept standard React event handlers. The best practice is to pass event handlers directly as props.

Example: Handling Click, Hover, and Focus Events

import React from "react";

import { Button, TextField } from "@mui/material";

const MyComponent = () => {

  const handleClick = (event: React.MouseEvent<HTMLButtonElement>) => {

    console.log("Button clicked!", event);

  };

  const handleFocus = (event: React.FocusEvent<HTMLInputElement>) => {

    console.log("Input focused!", event.target.value);

  };

  const handleMouseEnter = (event: React.MouseEvent<HTMLButtonElement>) => {

    console.log("Mouse entered button!", event);

  };

  return (

    <div>

      <Button 

        variant="contained" 

        color="primary" 

        onClick={handleClick} 

        onMouseEnter={handleMouseEnter}

      >

        Click Me

      </Button>

      <TextField 

        label="Enter Text" 

        onFocus={handleFocus} 

        variant="outlined" 

      />

    </div>

  );

};

export default MyComponent;
