Is it possible to update props from outside after component is rendered?

Example: I have non-react form with a single react component bound via habitat. There is a checkbox next to react component which dictates wether react component should be enabled or disabled. What would be the best approach to update props after react component was already bound and rendered.

It is not.

Since this package has received few updates of the last years I decided to write my own version at https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-abode.

It will automatically detect prop changes and rerender your react component.
