The Portal component lets you render its children into a DOM node that exists outside of the Portal's own DOM hierarchy.

Props

NameTypeDefaultDescription
childrennode
The children to render into the container.
containerHTML element
| func
An HTML element or function that returns one. The container will have the portal children appended to it.
By default, it uses the body of the top-level document object, so it's simply document.body most of the time.
disablePortalboolfalse
The children will be under the DOM hierarchy of the parent component.

The component cannot hold a ref.
