Installation and Configuration

You can use Create-react-app to setup the applications. To install create-react-app run the following command.

Start a new project using create-react-app command as follows

```bash create-react-app quickstart --scripts-version=react-scripts-ts cd quickstart ```

‘react-scripts-ts’ is used for creating React app with typescript.

Adding Syncfusion packages

All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com public registry.

To install Button component, use the following command

npm install @syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons --save

Adding Button component to the Application

To include the Button component in your application import the ButtonComponent from ej2-react-buttons package in App.tsx.

Add the Button component in application as shown in below code example.

// Import the Button.
import { ButtonComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons';
import * as React from 'react';
import './App.css';

// To render Button.
function App() {
  return (
    <ButtonComponent>Button</ButtonComponent>
  );
}
export default App;

// Import the Button.
import { ButtonComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons';
import * as React from 'react';
import './App.css';
// To render Button.
function App() {
    return (<ButtonComponent>Button</ButtonComponent>);
}
export default App;

Adding CSS Reference

Import the Button component’s required CSS references as follows in src/App.css.

@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";

Running the application

Run the application in the browser using the following command:

npm start

The following example shows a basic Button component.

app.jsx
app.tsx
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { ButtonComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDom from 'react-dom';
enableRipple(true);
// To render Button.
function App() {
    return (<ButtonComponent>Button</ButtonComponent>);
}
export default App;
ReactDom.render(<App />, document.getElementById('button'));
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { ButtonComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDom from 'react-dom';

enableRipple(true);

// To render Button.
function App() {
  return (
    <ButtonComponent>Button</ButtonComponent>
  );
}
export default App;
ReactDom.render(<App />,document.getElementById('button'));
