super got strikethrough in React

Question

Code

import React, { Component } from \'react\';
import PropTypes from \'prop-types\';
import axios from \'axios\';
import { connect } from \'react-redux\';         


        

Answer 1

I think it may has to do with ES 6 syntax for React. Now you don't have to use the constructor nor the super in React.

For example, you can write

export default class ExpenseForm extends React.Component {
    state ={
        description:'',
        amount:''
    }
}

VS Code may detect the unnecessary use of constructor and super that is crossed out.
