The Link component

Behind the scenes, the WYSIWYG text editor uses a Link component to render links.

This component renders a normal <a> tag for external links and uses the renderLocalLink function from the configuration to render internal links, so that they leverage your React framework's router.

As we saw in RichText, for each RichText component, you may replace the Link component with any component you want, by setting the renderLink prop.

Sometimes you may want to use the <Link> component directly, for example if your block renders a link where the path or external URL must be provided from a sidebar prop.

  href: string
