Which version of typescript we should use?

[tomtobac]

Hey folks, I recently updated the dependencies of @twilio-paste to use only core and icons (see screenshot) but now our components doesn't have styles and if we keep a lower typescript dependency 3.7.5 we are getting this weird errors:

Updated dependencies:

E.g.: Using typescript 3.7.5

Import:

import { Box, Button, Stack } from '@twilio-paste/core';

Error:

If we upgrade it to typescript 4.1.3 the errors of typescript disappear but the components doesn't have style at all :(

Only form components, modals and button secondary. Any ideas?

My pr with the changes and repo: https://code.hq.twilio.com/voice-n-video-console/vnv-console-video/pull/100/files

The version of typecript shouldn't matter. This looks similar to a previous issue that got raised about weird type issues #827.

It turned out to be a version of @types/react, which we have tried to pin as a dependency so you install the correct one. Problem is depending on your own dep tree, you might not be using the most current one.

try yarn why @types/react and see what version its resolving too. You might have to add a resolution to your package json file if it's not getting the right one.

See if that fixes the type errors first.

I suspect the styles are caused by a different issues

@tomtobac I think "@types/react": "16.9.35", is your problem, when we had that issue I am pretty sure yarn was defaulting to that rather than a newer one. I'd suggest trying to update to at least 16.9.44 that's the version that worked for us.

Hey @tomtobac ! ^ @synnottd's on the right track here, though the version we require is actually 16.9.53. Let us know if that helps you out.

Hey @tomtobac - just wanted to followup on this and make sure updating your version solved this for ya? Let us know!

hey @katieporter , at the end we pinned this version and it worked

"@twilio-paste/core": "4.1.0",
"@twilio-paste/icons": "3.12.1",
 "typescript": "3.9.4",

I will try with the "@types/react": "16.9.35" version whenever I have a chance and I will let you know, thanks a lot!

Great! Glad that worked for ya.
