I am begining learning React.
I am following along to a tutorial video, and when I press the button, the name should change from Juju to Julie. But when I press the button, the name doesn't change.
I keep comparing the code to the code I see in the video and it seems identical.
Please bear with me, I am trying to learn React and I am at the very beginning, I just cant figure out why the name won't change.
Here is my App.js code:
import { Component } from "react";
import logo from "./logo.svg";
import "./App.css";
class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
name: "Juju",
};
}
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<header className="App-header">
<img src={logo} className="App-logo" alt="logo" />
<p>Hi {this.state.name}</p>
<button
onclick={() => {
this.setState({ name: "Julie" });
}}
>
Change name
</button>
</header>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;

The event you have used should be onClick. Please try the followed code.
<button onClick={() => {this.setState({ name: "Julie" }) }} >
Change name
</button>

If you check the console you can see this error:

Make sure to check the console to see if you are getting any errors.
