SyntheticEvent is a cross-browser wrapper around the browser's native event. It's API is same as the browser's native event, including stopPropagation() and preventDefault(), except the events work identically across all browsers.

Synthetic events combine the response of different browser's native events into one API, ensuring that the events are consistent across different browsers.

The application is consistent regardless of the browser it is running in. Here, preventDefault is a synthetic event.

It is actually a cross-browser wrapper around the browser’s native event. These events have interface stopPropagation() and preventDefault().
