I have a nested JSON, the reason I fail to render is arrays in data{}
are not initilaized. The same reason in this question: How do I access elements of an array in a property in Javascript object?
Now the situation is much more complex, should I do it in the same way? If so, how do I initialize this nested JSON? Or is there any smarter way?

This is my code:
import React, {Component} from 'react'
import { Grid, Header, Label } from 'semantic-ui-react'
class raceWindow extends Component {
constructor(props)
{
super(props)
this.state = {
data: {}
}
}
componentDidMount()
{
fetch(this.props.hdAPI)
.then(response=>response.json())
.then(data => {this.setState({data: data})});
this.setState({hdAPI: this.props.hdAPI});
}
componentDidUpdate(prevProps)
{
if(this.props.hdAPI !== prevProps.hdAPI)
{
fetch(this.props.hdAPI)
.then(response=>response.json())
.then(data => {this.setState({data: data})});
this.setState({hdAPI: this.props.hdAPI});
}
}
render()
{
const { data } = this.state;
return(
<div>
<Header size = 'huge'>{data.name}</Header>
<Grid container>
{
Object.entries(data).slice(2).map(
([attr, value]) => {
return(
{/*Following code does not work because:
this.state = {data:{}}

what should I do to render every element?*/}
<Grid.Column>
<Label horizontal>{attr}</Label>
{value}
</Grid.Column>
);
}
)
}
</Grid>
</div>
);
}
}
export default raceWindow
