React and the spread operator

[Mike Austin]

I use the spread operator in React everywhere, allowing me to delegate properties without boilerplate. Adding a new database field "archived":

type Item:

+ archived: boolean

GraphQL Query:

+ archived

BacklogItem:

+ archived

+ archived: boolean

+         {archived && (
+           <Icon light icon={TrashIcon} size={14} />
+         )}

I used to be on the fence with spreading props from data, but I control all the data transformations so a prop change won't affect components.
