react/jsx-max-depth Style

What it does

Enforces a maximum depth for nested JSX elements and fragments.

Why is this bad?

Excessively nested JSX makes components harder to read and maintain.

Examples

    </div>
  </div>
);

Examples of correct code for this rule:

jsx
const Component = () => (
  <div>
    <div>
      <span />
    </div>
  </div>
