I encountered this error while building the monorepo app with Next.js and Convex on Railway

"#13 15.98 web:build: Type error: Type 'React.ReactNode' is not assignable to type 'import("/app/apps/web/node_modules/@types/react/index").ReactNode'.

Hi @spark ice. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

This error appears to be related to a type mismatch in the ConvexClientProvider component when used with Next.js. The issue seems to stem from how React types are being interpreted in your project setup. Let's address this based on the information provided in the knowledge sources.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

  1. Ensure you're using the correct import for ConvexClientProvider. Based on the Next.js Quickstart guide (https://docs.convex.dev/quickstart/nextjs), you should import it like this:
import { ConvexProvider, ConvexReactClient } from "convex/react";
  1. Make sure your ConvexClientProvider is set up correctly. Here's an example of how it should look:
"use client";

import { ConvexProvider, ConvexReactClient } from "convex/react";
import { ReactNode } from "react";

const convex = new ConvexReactClient(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_CONVEX_URL!);

export function ConvexClientProvider({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
  return <ConvexProvider client={convex}>{children}</ConvexProvider>;
}
  1. If you're using TypeScript, make sure you have the correct type definitions for React. You might need to update your tsconfig.json file. Try adding or updating the following compiler options:
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "lib": ["dom", "dom.iterable", "esnext"],
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "strict": true,
    "target": "es2015"
  }
}

The "target": "es2015" option is particularly important, as mentioned in a Discord support thread (https://discord.com/channels/1019350475847499849/1267794303183487016).

  1. If you're using Next.js 15, be aware that there are known issues with Convex Auth and Next.js 15. As mentioned in another Discord support thread (https://discord.com/channels/1019350475847499849/1301291436875976734), Convex Auth doesn't support Next.js 15 yet. You might need to downgrade to an earlier version of Next.js if you're using Convex Auth.

  2. If the issue persists, try cleaning your project's cache and reinstalling dependencies. Sometimes, type issues can be resolved by ensuring all dependencies are correctly installed and TypeScript definitions are up to date.

If these steps don't resolve the issue, you might need to provide more context about your project setup, including your package.json dependencies and the full code of the file where the error occurs. The error might be related to how your monorepo is structured or how the types are being resolved across different packages.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
