I'd be happy to explain them to you. Forward refs refer to "Ref forwarding" which is a feature of React components that allows them to take a ref that they receive and pass it down to their children. For example....

const ButtonElement = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => (
  <button ref={ref} className="ExampleButton">
    {props.children}
  </button>
));

// Create ref to the DOM button:
const ref = React.createRef();
<ButtonElement ref={ref}>{"Example of Forward Ref"}</ButtonElement>;
