[lanthronwarne1998]

class StatefulComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    // Only change code below this line

    // Only change code above this line
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>

Please Tell us what’s happening in your own words.

Learning to describe problems is hard, but it is an important part of learning how to code.

Also, the more you say, the more we can help!

The state goes inside the constructor on this

this.state = {
  someProp: 'somevalue'
}

It is just a class and pretty much works as any class would.

class someClass {
  constructor() {
    this.instanceProperty = {
      prop: "value"
    };
  }
  renderMethod() {
    return `<div>${this.instanceProperty.prop}</div>`
  }
}

const instance = new someClass();
console.log(instance.instanceProperty.prop); // value
console.log(instance.renderMethod()); // <div>value</div>
