What Are Class Components?

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'



class Message extends Component {

    fruits = ['Banana', 'orange', 'Apple'];
    render() {
        return (
            <h1>I am a class component demo</h1>
        );
    }

}

ReactDOM.render(<Message />, document.getElementById('root'));
