Here various changes have been made to the forked React application to solve numerous problems and make improvements. Here’s a detailed explanation of the changes:Here’s a detailed explanation of the changes:
Dependency and Module Resolution
Issue Resolution: The most important work was dedicated to cleaning up dependency and resolution problems with modules. The original code also produced errors which were caused by the missing of modules such as react-router-dom and react/jsx-runtime. These are signs that TypeScript could not find the correct modules or the type declarations required.
Solution: The solution was to properly install these packages such that the packages’ type declarations were even reachable. This was done by installing
react-router-dom
and@types/react-router-dom
to enhance the routing functionality of the application and to check the correct installation ofreact
andreact-dom
. Moreover, TypeScript configuration was changed to work with the new JSX transform, which became a part of React 17 to pass thereact/jsx-runt ime
rule.ErrorBoundary Component
Issue Resolution: The second important change fixed the problem of the absence of the
children
prop in theErrorBoundary
component. TypeScript errors suggested that the component expected to receivechildren
but it was half-baked to achieve such a feat.Solution: The
ErrorBoundary
component was error-prone in the way thechildren
prop was defined and what it was expected to contain. This was achievable by changing thechildren
type of theErrorBoundary
fromany
toReactNode
and correct rendering of child components or rendering a fallback UI in case of errors. This enhancement seeks to increase the way of handling the runtime errors in the application by finding a better way of catching them.Code Organization and Consistency
Enhancements: Apart from solving the above problems, the code was further optimized as to be more readable and standardized. The
Layout
component was refactor to make use of an implicit return statement which makes a bit cleaner and less verbose. In imports, they were checked and fixed to match the real structure of the files they refer to, especially the components and styles.Impact: The problem is that it is not only designs and fixes significant problems but also improves the overall stability and code maintainability of the React application. Thus, through solving dependency resolution issues, error boundaries’ dealing, and code organization, the application was enhanced to provide better results in numerous cases and create a more stable user experience.
