Q190: Should keys be globally unique? - React & Modern Frontend (445 Qs)

The keys used within arrays should be unique among their siblings but they don’t need to be globally unique. i.e, You can use the same keys with two different arrays.

For example, the below Book component uses two arrays with different arrays,

javascript

function Book(props) {
const index = (
  <ul>
    {props.pages.map((page) => (
      <li key={page.id}>{page.title}</li>
    ))}
  </ul>
);
const content = props.pages.map((page) => (
  <div key={page.id}>
    <h3>{page.title}</h3>
    <p>{page.content}</p>
    <p>{page.pageNumber}</p>
  </div>
));
return (
  <div>
    {index}
    <hr />
    {content}
  </div>
);
}
