How to render a component for particular element in a array

I have an array, for which a component (<span>Delete</span> in my case) needs to be shown only if the array length is greater than 2 and also, not show in first two array elements but show in other elements.

Example: array = ["One","Two","Three","Four"] Show <span>Delete</span> in "Three" and "Four" as the array is greater than length 2. In the above case, even if the array is greater than length 2 don't show in first two elements ( "One" and "Two" ).

Code:

const App = () => {
  const [element, setElement] = useState(["element"]);

  return (
    <>
      {element.map((e) => (
        <div>
          <span>{e}</span>
          {element.length > 2 &&  <span style={{color:"red"}}>{" "}Delete</span>}
          </div>
      ))}

      <button onClick={() => setElement((element) => [...element, "element"])}>Add</button>
    </>
  );
};

The above code shows "Delete" text in all the elements

instead should show only for elements after the 2nd index.

Use the index of the element you're iterating over (the second argument in the .map callback) to check if the index is 2 or more - if so, you can show the delete, otherwise don't show it.

const App = () => {
  const [elements, setElements] = useState(["element"]);

  return (
    <>
      {elements.map((e, i) => (
        <div>
          <span>{e}</span>
          {elements.length > 2 && i >= 2 && <span style={{color:"red"}}>{" "}Delete</span>}
        </div>
      ))}

(Because the state is an array, making its name plural makes a lot more sense than a singular element, which sounds like an array item)

You can do something like this

{element.length > 2 && element.map((ele,index) => {
    if(index > 1){
        return <p>{ele}</p>
    }
    else{
        return <></>
    }
})}

You also need to check if the index of the current item is greater than 1.

const App = () => {
  const [element, setElement] = React.useState(["element"]);

  return (
    <React.Fragment>
      {element.map((e, i) => (
        <div>
          <span>{e}</span>
          {i > 1 && element.length > 2 && <span style={{ color: "red" }}>Delete</span>}
        </div>
      ))}

      <button onClick={() => setElement((element) => [...element, "element"])}>
        Add
      </button>
    </React.Fragment>
  );
};

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));

<div id="root"></div>
