GreenSock-JS VS DefinitelyTyped

This direct manipulation allows you to leverage robust animation libraries like GSAP or Anime.js, which require direct DOM access to perform optimally.

I've been looking for a small project to do that would let me play with Greensock (GSAP), specifically a bit with some SVG files I generated with Corel Vector. When I saw the frontend challenge and had an afternoon at work with downtime between a few projects, I knew it'd be a great opportunity to explore a bit!

The GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP) is a web animation library that provides the logic for adding animation to any site powered by JavaScript. React, being built on top of JavaScript, falls under this category. GSAP is an extremely fun animation tool to use because it offers a great deal of flexibility, you can animate anything using GSAP — texts, images, scroll actions, SVGs, UI interactions, anything!

Green Sock has over 16,400 GitHub stars and 400k weekly NPM downloads.

Prior to React 18, it used to include an implicit children prop, making it suitable for components expected to have children. For a long time, though, the implicit children prop type has been removed according to React 18's type changes.

Additionally, because TypeScript has a well established and widely used install-base, there are already many different definition files in the wild for supporting non-TypeScript supporting projects. One of the more extensive collections of these typings lives at the DefinitelyTyped repository, which publishes the package's community typings under the package names @types/your-package-name (where your-package-name is the name of the project you're looking for typings of) that you can look for on your package manager.

Their type definition for HAR request isn't exported https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/blob/mast...

type NumberOrString = number | string; type Status = "idle" | "loading" | "success" | "failure" // React useState, can receive a value or a function as parameter to serve as initial value. // https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/blob/a03856975a17eba524739676affbf70ac4078176/types/react/v17/index.d.ts#L920 function useState(initialState: S | (() => S)): [S, Dispatch>];

The TypeScript pull request was merged, so Sebastian (who helps maintain the React type definitions) exercised new powers in this pull request to the DefinitelyTyped repository for the React type definitions. At the time of writing, this pull request is still open, but once merged and shipped the React community we will feel its benefits.

there is an open issue: https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/issues/61616

Relatively infrequently. Normally, if an npm package is popular and doesn’t have its own types, there will be a community provided types declaration file available from https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped
