Key prop

👨‍💼 Great work. That was super weird an confusing for our users. They're much happier now.
🦉 Note, the key only needs to be unique within a given array. So this works fine:
const element = (
	<ul>
		{list.map(listItem => (
			<li key={listItem.id}>{listItem.value}</li>
		))}
	</ul>
)
In our example, the value of the input is managed by the browser, but this has even bigger implications when we start working with our own state and side-effects. It's a little too early to demonstrate this for you, but you should know that when React removes a component from the DOM, it gets "unmounted" which will trigger side-effect cleanups, and if new elements are added then those will be "mounted" and will trigger your side-effects. This can cause some surprising and problematic issues for your users.
So just remember the rule and always provide a key when rendering an array. Later when you have more React experience, you can come back to this exercise and expand it a bit with custom components that manage state and side-effects to observe the problems caused when you ignore the key.
