Hi @vanir3320. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Yes, you can use the code import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; in any JavaScript file within a React project to import the React, useState, and useEffect functionalities. However, make sure that your project is set up to use React and has the necessary dependencies installed. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To ensure that the necessary dependencies are installed for a React project, you can check your package.json file for the required packages. For a basic React project, you should have react and react-dom listed as dependencies. If you're starting a new project, you can use a tool like create-react-app or refine to set up a React project with the necessary dependencies. For example, to create a new refine project, you can run the following command:
npm create refine-app@latest my-project
npm create refine-app@latest my-project
(Source: Quick Start Guide (https://refine.dev/docs/getting-started/quickstart)) After setting up the project, navigate to the project folder and check the package.json file to ensure the required dependencies are listed. If they are missing, you can install them using npm or yarn. For example:
npm install react react-dom
npm install react react-dom
Once the dependencies are installed, you can use the import statement to import React and its features, such as useState and useEffect, in your JavaScript files. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

yes you can use this "import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';" any JS file. but you need to to bundle your app. you can use rollup, webpack, parcel, vite or any other tool you need to node project, npm manage your dependencies automatically. I'm not sure if I understand the question correctly. If I understood it correctly, it seems to be very basic web development and not really related to refine. I suggest researching from other sources to learn more about it. React is ultimately a JavaScript library. In fact, you only need HTML to run react. But that's a completely separate topic. for example: https://datastation.multiprocess.io/blog/2021-07-08-react-without-webpack.html

It was to do with proper installations, the stuff I needed was in the tutorial app automatically so when i started a project outside of that i needed to install them properly thanks though
