I created a jsfiddle with an example of how to share a variable between two components using a parent component.

class Parent extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {shared_var: "init"};
    }

    updateShared(shared_value) {
        this.setState({shared_var: shared_value});
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <div>
                <CardSearch shared_var={this.state.shared_var} updateShared={this.updateShared} />
                <RunOnServer shared_var={this.state.shared_var} updateShared={this.updateShared} />
                <div> The shared value is {this.state.shared_var} </div>
            </div>
        );
    }
}

class CardSearch extends React.Component {
    updateShared() {
        this.props.updateShared('card');
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <button onClick={this.updateShared} style={this.props.shared_var == 'card' ? {backgroundColor: "green"} : null} >
            card
            </button>
        );
    }
}

class RunOnServer extends React.Component {
    updateShared() {
        this.props.updateShared('run');
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <button onClick={this.updateShared} style={this.props.shared_var == 'run' ? {backgroundColor: "green"} : null}>
            run
            </button>
        );
    }
}


ReactDOM.render(
  <Parent/>,
  document.getElementById('container')
);

Hello,
I think this is what you are looking for: lifting the state up to their common parent component.

For example:
Create the Parent Component:

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import SiblingA from './SiblingA';
import SiblingB from './SiblingB';

const Parent = () => {
  const [data, setData] = useState('');

  const handleDataChange = (newData) => {
    setData(newData);
  };

  return (
    
      
      
    
  );
};

export default Parent;

Create SiblingA Component:

import React from 'react';

const SiblingA = ({ onDataChange }) => {
  const handleChange = (event) => {
    onDataChange(event.target.value);
  };

  return (
    
      
    
  );
};

export default SiblingA;

In React, state goes top to bottom. A nested component can update the state of a parent if a function defined in the parent has been passed to it as prop. Hence, what you wanna do is not possible (exchanging state between List and Form, two sibling components).

For this to work, you should have the state for the list in a parent component, App.js for example, this way:

import Form from "./Components/Form";
import List from "./Components/List";
import {useState} from "react";


function App() {
  const [list, setList] = useState([])
  return (

      <div className="App">
          <header>
              <h1>Shopping List</h1>
          </header>
          <Form list = {list} setList = {setList}/>
          <List list = {list} />
      </div>
  )
}

import React, {useState} from "react";

const List = ({list}) =>{

    return(
        <div>
            <ul>{list.map(item => <li>"test"</li>)}</ul>
        </div>
    )
}

export default List

const Form = ({list, setList}) => {
    const [inputText,setInputText] = useState("")

    const submitBtn = (e) =>{
         e.preventDefault()  
        setList([
            ...list,{inputText}
        ])
    }

    return (
        <form>
            <input
                value={inputText}
                type="text"
                onChange={
                    (e) => setInputText(e.target.value)
                }
            />
            <button type="submit" onClick={submitBtn}>
                <i>Add</i>
            </button>
        </form>
    )
}

export default Form

TLDR: Yes, you should use a props-from-top-to-bottom and change-handlers-from-bottom-to-top approach. But this can get unwieldy in a larger application, so you can use design patterns like Flux or Redux to reduce your complexity.

Simple React approach

React components receive their "inputs" as props; and they communicate their "output" by calling functions that were passed to them as props. A canonical example:

<input value={value} onChange={changeHandler}>

You pass the initial value in one prop; and a change handler in another prop.

Who can pass values and change handlers to a component? Only their parent. (Well, there is an exception: you can use the context to share information between components, but that's a more advanced concept, and will be leveraged in the next example.)

So, in any case, it's the parent component of your selects that should manage the input for your selects. Here is an example:

class Example extends React.Component {

    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {
            // keep track of what is selected in each select
            selected: [ null, null, null ] 
        };
    }

    changeValue(index, value) {
        // update selected option
        this.setState({ selected: this.state.selected.map((v, i) => i === index ? value : v)})
    }

    getOptionList(index) {
        // return a list of options, with anything selected in the other controls disabled
        return this.props.options.map(({value, label}) => {
            const selectedIndex = this.state.selected.indexOf(value);
            const disabled = selectedIndex >= 0 && selectedIndex !== index;
            return {value, label, disabled};
        });
    }

    render() {
        return (<div>
            <Select value={this.state.selected[0]} options={this.getOptionList(0)} onChange={v => this.changeValue(0, v)} />
            <Select value={this.state.selected[1]} options={this.getOptionList(1)} onChange={v => this.changeValue(1, v)} />
            <Select value={this.state.selected[2]} options={this.getOptionList(2)} onChange={v => this.changeValue(2, v)} />
        </div>)
    }

}

Redux

The main drawback of the above approach is that you have to pass a lot of information from the top to the bottom; as your application grows, this becomes difficult to manage. React-Redux leverages React's context feature to enable child components to access your Store directly, thus simplifying your architecture.

Example (just some key pieces of your redux application - see the react-redux documentation how to wire these together, e.g. createStore, Provider...):

// reducer.js

// Your Store is made of two reducers:
// 'dropdowns' manages the current state of your three dropdown;
// 'options' manages the list of available options.

const dropdowns = (state = [null, null, null], action = {}) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case 'CHANGE_DROPDOWN_VALUE':
            return state.map((v, i) => i === action.index ? action.value : v);
        default:
            return state;
    }
};

const options = (state = [], action = {}) => {
    // reducer code for option list omitted for sake of simplicity
};

// actionCreators.js

export const changeDropdownValue = (index, value) => ({
    type: 'CHANGE_DROPDOWN_VALUE',
    index,
    value
});

// helpers.js

export const selectOptionsForDropdown = (state, index) => {
    return state.options.map(({value, label}) => {
        const selectedIndex = state.dropdowns.indexOf(value);
        const disabled = selectedIndex >= 0 && selectedIndex !== index;
        return {value, label, disabled};
    });    
};

// components.js

import React from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { changeDropdownValue } from './actionCreators';
import { selectOptionsForDropdown } from './helpers';
import { Select } from './myOtherComponents';

const mapStateToProps = (state, ownProps) => ({
    value: state.dropdowns[ownProps.index],
    options: selectOptionsForDropdown(state, ownProps.index)
}};

const mapDispatchToProps = (dispatch, ownProps) => ({
    onChange: value => dispatch(changeDropdownValue(ownProps.index, value));
});

const ConnectedSelect = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(Select);

export const Example = () => (
    <div>
        <ConnectedSelect index={0} />
        <ConnectedSelect index={1} />
        <ConnectedSelect index={2} />
    </div>
);

As you can see, the logic in the Redux example is the same as the vanilla React code. But it is not contained in the parent component, but in reducers and helper functions (selectors). An instead of top-down passing of props, React-Redux connects each individual component to the state, resulting in a simpler, more modular, easier-to-maintain code.

you can't pass data through siblings, you need to lift up state or use other strategies. you need to find a common ancestor (in your case App.js) to place your state, and pass down your state and your setState function as props to Shop and Pdp. this is the simplest approach.

with a deep nested tree you would need to pass down to each component until it finds the final consumer. in this case instead you could use the Context API where you create a provider and you can consume directly.

for more complex state management (a shopping cart would fit the case) you have options like redux where you have a redux state, with reducers that handle state properly, and connect with components.

about setState:

setState is async, to print an updated state you can console.log on componentDidUpdate life cycle. also setState can take a second argument, a callback function that will run after your state's update so you can console.log your updated state.
