Starting with react-pdf is extremely

Using npm

npm install @react-pdf/rend


Since a renderer simply
implements how elements render
into something, you still need to
have React to make it work (and
react-dom for client-side document
generation). You can find
instructions on how to do that

import React from 'react';

3. Choose where to
render the document

React-pdf enables you to render


the document in three different
environments: web and server. The
process is essentially the same, but
catered to needs of each
environment.

import ReactPDF from '@reac

ReactPDF.render(<MyDocument

Render to a stream
