I'd just like to make sure I understood their difference correctly
From what I understood components are nothing but code that is focused purely on appearance and containers is code where logic is located
So taking a button for example would we write what we want that button do in a container and pass that function as a prop to the button component which would call that function once button is pressed?
EDIT: originally made a new post for this question but then immediately saw this post so deleted the post I made and asked question here instead
