Your Guide to the HTML to JSX Converter
Accelerate Your React Workflow

This tool is designed to streamline your development process. It bridges the gap between a static HTML design and a dynamic, reusable React component. By automating the tedious and error-prone manual conversions, you can focus on what truly matters: building amazing applications.


How It Works: A Quick Start Guide

Follow these simple steps to transform your code in seconds:

  1. Paste Your HTML: Enter your HTML code into the "HTML Input" window. You can also load one of the samples to test the tool.
  2. Configure Your Preferences: Use the "Conversion Settings" on the left to customize the output. Want a complete component? Enable 'Wrap in React Component'.
  3. Get Instant Results: The correct JSX version appears immediately in the "JSX Output" window. The conversion happens live as you type, giving you direct feedback.
  4. Export and Use: Copy the code with a single click or use the "Export" buttons to download a .jsx, .js, or even a .tsx file, ready for integration into your project.

The Essential Difference: HTML vs. JSX

While JSX looks a lot like HTML, there are crucial differences that this converter automatically handles for you:

HTML (The Web Standard)

Defines the structure and content of a webpage.

  • Attributes: class="my-style"
  • Events: onclick="..."
  • Inline Styles: style="color: blue; font-size: 12px;"
JSX (React's Syntax)

A JavaScript extension for building UIs.

  • Attributes (camelCase): className="my-style"
  • Events (camelCase): onClick={handleEvent}
  • Inline Styles (Object): style={{ color: 'blue', fontSize: '12px' }}

Additionally, the tool ensures that all tags are properly closed (e.g., <img> becomes <img />) and that JavaScript reserved words like for and class are correctly transformed. This allows you to seamlessly integrate your HTML directly into your React application, boosting your productivity.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What HTML elements and attributes are converted to JSX?
The converter handles standard HTML elements and transforms attributes like class to className, for to htmlFor, style strings to style objects, and ensures self-closing tags comply with JSX syntax requirements.
Can I convert complex HTML structures with nested components?
Yes, the tool handles nested elements, complex attribute structures, and maintains proper JSX formatting throughout complex HTML hierarchies, making it suitable for converting entire page sections or components.
Does the tool handle inline styles and event handlers?
Yes, inline styles are converted to JSX style objects with camelCase properties, and event handlers are adjusted to React's camelCase naming convention (onClick instead of onclick).
Are there any HTML features that don't convert well?
Some HTML-specific features like certain form attributes, SVG namespaces, or non-standard attributes may need manual adjustment. The tool handles standard HTML very well but edge cases may require review.
Is this useful for migrating existing websites to React?
Extremely useful! The converter speeds up the process of converting existing HTML templates, components, or pages to React JSX, saving significant development time during migration projects.
