Hey guys does anyone knows why this error happening

[heady wharf]

im sure it's something related to the code here,
the useEffect is about transforming some richText to detail and summary then removing it

[hybrid hare]

document.querySelector(".ql-editor") might be returning null. also i'm not sure if you need to use document.querySelector at all for the things you're trying to do

[heady wharf]

i added this and the warning disappeared

quix-fix

oh but still an error

[hybrid hare]

yeah ideally you should handle the type errors rather than ignoring them with a comment

[heady wharf]

the problem is i can't identify the error it happens suddenly

[hybrid hare]

remove the comments first. also maybe you should install the eslint plugin in your vscode so you can see the errors

do you see red scribbles in your editor i'm not sure if vscode supports ts out of the box

[heady wharf]

this ?

[hybrid hare]

yes

[heady wharf]

i have it already

first it takes this

[hybrid hare]

then i'm not sure why the errors arent showing up in your vscode i'm not really familiar with it

remove .children

or at least check if the queryselector is returning null or not

[heady wharf]

lemme try

oh

[heady wharf]

i thought I'm using react absolutely wrong with this code

[hybrid hare]

i mean if you're using react then i don't think you'll ever need document.querySelector

if you need a reference to a dom element you could use useRef

[heady wharf]

but im getting my text from database which means i won't be able to refer

i think it would be possible only if i had an element

[hybrid hare]

if you're getting data from the database you can fetch it, change the state with useState and render the text based on that state
