The class syntax is the standard way to define a React component. But it's kind of a lot of ritual for a component that doesn't refer to this.state and only has a render() function.
In these situations, and if you're confident that a component won't eventually need to hold its own state, it's often preferable to write your component as a stateless functional component rather than a full blown component using class.
These are equivalent ways to define a component, but just so you're aware of your options when writing your own code and also when reading somebody else's. Read more here!
