Not sure if this is the right community for it but it's worth a shot for me: I'm using PropTypes from the prop-types npm package. It's perfect for typing your React app but one thing that's really annoying for me is that my vs code editor doesn't recognise the import when i'm using PropTypes. It does make sense to me, since the package is called prop-types and you import it as a default import, most of the times named PropTypes, but i'm wondering if somebody has a nice trick to make this work with auto import in vs code, or any other way so I don't have to import it manually.
So.. when typing:
DiscoverAppsBanner.propTypes = {
trackingContext: PropTypes
}
I would expect that the import would show up here:
Anyone out there with a nice idea? :)

If you prefer to exclude prop-types from your application and use it globally via window. PropTypes , the prop-types package provides single-file distributions, which are hosted on the following CDNs: unpkg.
PropTypes are simply a mechanism that ensures that the passed value is of the correct datatype. This makes sure that we don't receive an error at the very end of our app by the console which might not be easy to deal with.
Using PropTypes in React PropTypes is React's internal mechanism for adding type checking to components. React components use a special property named propTypes to set up type checking. When props are passed to a React component, they are checked against the type definitions configured in the propTypes property.
Validating Props In this example, we are creating App component with all the props that we need. App. propTypes is used for props validation. If some of the props aren't using the correct type that we assigned, we will get a console warning.
Once we have imported propTypes we are ready to work with them. Just like defaultProps, propTypes are also objects where keys are the prop names and values are their types. Below syntax shows how to use propTypes:
For performance reasons, propTypes is only checked in development mode. Here is an example documenting the different validators provided: import PropTypes from 'prop-types'; MyComponent.propTypes = { // You can declare that a prop is a specific JS type.
We can use the propType for validating any data we are receiving from props. But before using it we will have to import it. Add the below line at the top of your index.js file : Once we have imported propTypes we are ready to work with them. Just like defaultProps, propTypes are also objects where keys are the prop names and values are their types.
Just like defaultProps, propTypes are also objects where keys are the prop names and values are their types. Below syntax shows how to use propTypes: In the above Syntax, the ComponentClassName is the name of the class of Component, anyOtherType can be any type that we are allowed to pass as props.
From my side, I resolve issue by a crazy trick, I create file with name propTypes.js and I import and export library in this file like this:
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
export default PropTypes;
By this trick, auto import is work and refer to myfile, and I forget the anyone import.
and the import result import PropTypes from "propTypes";
