How do I use nested routes in React Router v6?

To use nested routes in React Router v6, you can define child routes within a parent route using the Outlet component.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import { BrowserRouter as Router, Routes, Route, Outlet } from 'react-router-dom';

function App() {
  return (
    <Router>
      <Routes>
        <Route path='/' element={<Layout />}>  
          <Route index element={<Home />} />
          <Route path='about' element={<About />} />
          <Route path='users' element={<Users />}>  
            <Route path=':id' element={<UserDetail />} />
          </Route>
        </Route>
      </Routes>
    </Router>
  );
}

In this example, UserDetail is a nested route under Users.

What is the purpose of the Outlet component?

The Outlet component is used to render the child routes of a parent route. It acts as a placeholder for the nested components.

Are there any best practices for using nested routes?

Yes, keep your route structure organized, use meaningful path names, and ensure that your components are modular for better maintainability.
