How do I enable pop-up menus from materialise in React?

Question

I have a React app, I'm trying to add a NavBar there like this

<ul id="dropdown1" className="dropdown-content">
          <li><NavLink to="/create">Create lessons</NavLink></li>*/}
                <li><NavLink to="/lessons">Lessons</NavLink></li>
                <li><NavLink to="/quizes">Quizes</NavLink></li>
                <li><NavLink to="/quizcreator">Create QuizGame</NavLink></li>
                <li></li>
                <li></li>
        </ul>

  <nav>
    <div className="nav-wrapper">
      <a href="#!" className="brand-logo">Logo</a>
      <ul className="right hide-on-med-and-down">
        <li><NavLink to="/home">Home</NavLink></li>
        <li><a className="dropdown-trigger" href="#!" data-target="dropdown1">Dropdown<i
            className="material-icons right">arrow_drop_down</i></a></li>
        <li><a href="/" onClick={logoutHandler}>Logout</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </nav>

I would like this thing to open and show the contents either when clicked or hovered over

The materialize css website describes the following code

$(".dropdown-trigger").dropdown();

But I can't figure out where to insert it? Application on the MERN stack
