In React, changes to state will be reflected in the UI by "flowing down" into components through props.
This unidirectional data flow means that when more than one component in our application needs access to state, that shared state needs to be moved up to the closest common ancestor. That ancestor can then pass down the state to the components that need it as props. This is called lifting state up.
