Why are we not using return?

Please I need some explanation on why the Instructor code snippet below worked for him without using a return. It didn't work for me unless I encapsulate the Form element in return(). const SearchForm=()=>{

    <Form inline>
        <FormGroup controlId="formInlineEmail">
            <FormControl type="search" placeholder="enter something..." />
        </FormGroup>
        {' '}
        <Button type="submit">
            search
        </Button>
    </Form>

}

using curly braces with es6 requires a return statement, try something like :

const element = () => (<tagName> </tagName>)

It's called implicit return, take the time to read about it!
