React TypeScript

React TypeScript

Priority: P1 (OPERATIONAL)

Type-safe React patterns.

Implementation Guidelines

• Components: Return JSX.Element. Props interface over React.FC.
• Children: Use ReactNode or PropsWithChildren<T>.
• Events: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>.
• Hooks: useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null). useState<User | null>(null).
• Props: Use ComponentProps<'button'> to mirror native els.
• Generics: <T,>(props: ListProps<T>).
• Polymorphism: as prop patterns.

Anti-Patterns

• No any: Use unknown.
• No React.FC: Implicit children is deprecated/bad practice.
• No Function: Use (args: T) => void.

Code

// Modern Props
type ButtonProps = ComponentProps<'button'> & {
  variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary';
};

// Generic Component
type ListProps<T> = {
  items: T[];
  render: (item: T) => ReactNode;
};

function List<T>({ items, render }: ListProps<T>) {
  return <ul>{items.map(render)}</ul>;
}

// Hook Ref
const inputRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);
