In React, to obtain the input field value on a button click in React, we must create a state variable to store the input field's value and set an onChange event handler on the input for updating the state variable when the input field value changes.
To save the value of an input field on a button, click in React,
- For storing the value of the input field, create a state variable.
- Then to update the state variable when the input filed values changes, set an onChange event handler on the input.
- Ona button elelemt set an onClick event handler.
- Finally, access the state variable in the event handler.
React state can hold any kind of JavaScript value, including objects. But we should not change objects we hold in the React state directly; when we want to update an object, we need to create a new one and then set the state to use that copy.
Here is an example of how you can save input fields in React:

Code
In this solution we're using React library.
Instructions
Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.
- Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
- Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
- cd foldername.
- Open the folder in IDE.
- Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste it in app.js file and Inner.js file as per in the demo given below.
- Import React and Inner.js file in app.js file.
- Open the terminal from IDE.
- npm start to run the file.
