I somehow have to programmatically set the width of the :before
for a div
.
<div className="something" style={someStyle}> </div>
How can I define the someStyle
so that the width of the :before
of .something``div
can change accordingly??

Pseudo elements cannot be styled with inline styles as explained in https://stackoverflow.com/a/14141821/368697. You will have to style the something
class name in a stylesheet with the .something:before
selector. This is not a limitation of React but rather a design choice for HTML + CSS.
If you need to programmatically change the width of the pseudo :before
element, it is probably more appropriate as a regular DOM element rendered by React.
