Pagination Component in React

This React pagination component efficiently handles large datasets by dividing them into pages. It improves user experience by allowing navigation through data one page at a time, using "Previous," "Next," and page number buttons. The component calculates the total number of pages based on the total items and items per page. Page numbers are dynamically generated and displayed, highlighting the current page. A callback function manages page changes, updating the displayed data accordingly. The main app component manages the current page state and slices the data to display only the current page's items. Error handling ensures that page numbers remain within valid bounds. The pagination component is reusable and adaptable to various applications displaying large datasets. Its use significantly enhances performance by avoiding the rendering of the entire dataset at once. This pattern is especially beneficial for displaying lists of products, articles, or search results.
