# Tree

**Trees** display hierarchical data.

## Import

```ts copy
import { Tree } from "@blueprintjs/core";
```

@reactExample TreeExample

## Props interface

**Tree** is a stateless component. Its contents are dictated by the `contents` prop, which is an array of `<TreeNode>`
elements (see [below](#components/tree.tree-node)). The tree is multi-rooted if `contents` contains more than one
top-level object.

A variety of interaction callbacks are also exposed as props. All interaction callbacks supply a parameter `nodePath`,
which is an array of numbers representing a node's position in the tree. For example, `[2, 0]` represents the first
child (`0`) of the third top-level node (`2`).

### Instance methods

- `Tree.getNodeContentElement(nodeId: string | number): HTMLElement | undefined` &ndash;
  Returns the underlying HTML element of the `Tree` node with an id of `nodeId`.
  This element does not contain the children of the node, only its label and controls.
  If the node is not currently mounted, `undefined` is returned.

### Tree node

**TreeNode** elements determine the contents, appearance, and state of each node in the tree.

For example, `icon` controls the icon displayed for the node, and `isExpanded` determines whether the node's children
are shown.
