ReactJS - Disabling A Component

I need to disable PostList component in its initial state.

import React from 'react';
import PostList from './PostList';

const App = () => {
    return (
        <div className="ui container">
             <PostList />
        </div>
    );
};

export default App;

Whats the best way to disable (and grey out) a component? Possible solutions are to pass a value as props and then apply it to a ui element, However please keep in mind that PostList may have inner nested components as well. Please share an example.

Since you mentioned in a comment that instead of hiding it, you want to grey it instead. I would use the disabled state and style the component. Since PostList could be nested, we don't know what the props are since you did not specify them.

Also, I assuming that you are not using styled-components.

import React, { useState } from "react";
import PostList from "./PostList";

const App = () => {
  const [disabled, setDisabled] = useState(true);

  return (
    <div className="ui container">
      <PostList
        style={{
          opacity: disabled ? 0.25 : 1,
          pointerEvents: disabled ? "none" : "initial"
        }}
      />
    </div>
  );
};

export default App;
