I’m working on a Next.js application and encountering a recurring TypeError: (0 , react__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0__.createContext) is not a function error whenever I try running my app using npm run dev. This error occurs when trying to compile various components, all of which appear related to Radix UI components being utilized within a <ThemeProvider>.
Error Details:
TypeError: (0 , react__WEBPACK_IMPORTED [MODULE_0__].createContext) is not a function
at eval (webpack-internal://...:11:114) ...
Code Details:
The error seems to stem from the integration of Radix UI libraries and possibly how React contexts are implemented within the app. Below is a snippet where one such context is used in the hijraah/src/app/layout.tsx file within a ClerkProvider:
// layout.tsx snippet
import { ClerkProvider } from '@clerk/nextjs';
export default function RootLayout({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
return (
<ClerkProvider>
<html lang="en">
<body>
<Navigation />
<main>{children}</main>
<Footer />
</body>
</html>
</ClerkProvider>
);
}
Attempted Solutions:
- Checked and ensured correct imports for
createContextfrom React. - Checked for any potential issues with mismatched React versions across packages.
- Restarted the development server after clearing the
.nextcache.
Expected Outcome:
I expected the application to run without such type errors, especially since createContext should be a defined function imported from React.
**Actual Outcome:}>
The application fails to compile, throwing the mentioned TypeError related to createContext.
Setup:
- Next.js version: 14.2.3
- React version across different parts of the app: 18.2.0
- Usage of Radix UI components and @clerk/nextjs.
Question:
What could be causing this createContext error and how can I resolve it to ensure smooth integration of these UI components within my Next.js application?
