## Use Default Props
This challenge has you declaring a default prop for the ShoppingCart component
```javascript
const ShoppingCart = (props) => {
return (
Shopping Cart Component
)
};
```
To declare a default prop, the syntax to be followed is
```javascript
itemName.defaultProps = {
prop-x: value,
prop-y: value
}
```
Following the Syntax, the following code should be declared below the given code
```javascript
ShoppingCart.defaultProps = {
items: 0
}
```
This declares a prop named 'items' with the value of '0' .
