 # Conditional Rendering
 
-Your components will often need to display different things depending on different conditions. In `deephaven.ui`, you can conditionally render components using Python syntax like if statements, `and` operator, and the ternary operator.

 If `is_packed` is True, the component will return nothing. Otherwise, it will return a component to render.
 
-In practice, returning `None` from a component is not common because it might surprise a developer trying to render it. More often, you would conditionally include or exclude the component in the parent component. Here’s how to do that.

 ### Logical `and` operator
 
-Another common shortcut you will encounter is the Python logical `and` operator.
