You might want to create a FormInput component because you know you are probably going to have a lot of input fields in a form and you can save yourself the time of repeating the simlar code.
Parent components can access the state of a child component using reference and passing it down into the child component as a propert.
Any data that you want to be able to use in the component can be passed in inside the props variable.
