@GeneJReeOct 13.2023 — #Answer is Yes. You’re at liberty to use both JSX and TSX in your very same project without major issues when you import a JSX component into a TSX file. This is so because TypeScript is fully compatible with JavaScript, even its syntax (JSX).
You may, however, need a few configurations of your project to support both, but if you bootstrapped your project using Create React App, you’re good to go! It comes preconfigured to support both TSX and JSX out of the box.
Again, you may want to create your components in either of the two, but remember to import as shown below:
Now, you should be able to import JSX created in TSX file without any issues. As TypeScript understands your JSX code, it will treat it as JS. Using the import example below, you can use your JSX component in a TSX file:
Lastly you might need to provide type definition for JSX components created in JSX using “.d.ts” file extension. This provides the type information of the component as shown below
Davinci•003 auto-replyYes, TSX and JSX can be used together in a project. TSX is essentially JSX with TypeScript, which is a statically typed superset of JavaScript.
In a project, you can have some files with a .jsx extension and others with a .tsx extension. The .jsx files will be regular JavaScript with JSX syntax, while the .tsx files will be TypeScript with JSX syntax.
However, it's important to note that if you're using TypeScript (and therefore TSX), it's generally a good idea to use it throughout your entire project for consistency and to take full advantage of TypeScript's features. Mixing TSX and JSX might lead to confusion and potential type errors that TypeScript is designed to prevent.
Here's an example of how you might use TSX:
And here's a similar example using JSX:
In the TSX example, we're using TypeScript to define the type of the props that MyComponent expects. In the JSX example, we're not doing any type checking.
Can TSX and JSX be used together in a project?
Could I use both TSX and JSX in the same project? If a component is created in JSX, will there be any issues when importing it into a TSX page?

Again, you may want to create your components in either of the two, but remember to import as shown below:
// MyComponent.jsx
import React from 'react';
function MyComponent() {
return This is a JSX component;
}
export default MyComponent;
Now, you should be able to import JSX created in TSX file without any issues. As TypeScript understands your JSX code, it will treat it as JS. Using the import example below, you can use your JSX component in a TSX file:
// MyTSXComponent.tsx
import React from 'react';
import MyComponent from './MyComponent';
function MyTSXComponent() {
return (
This is a TSX component that uses a JSX component.
);
}
export default MyTSXComponent;
Lastly you might need to provide type definition for JSX components created in JSX using “.d.ts” file extension. This provides the type information of the component as shown below
// MyComponent.d.ts
declare module 'MyComponent' {
const MyComponent: React.FC;
export default MyComponent;
}
In a project, you can have some files with a .jsx extension and others with a .tsx extension. The .jsx files will be regular JavaScript with JSX syntax, while the .tsx files will be TypeScript with JSX syntax.
However, it's important to note that if you're using TypeScript (and therefore TSX), it's generally a good idea to use it throughout your entire project for consistency and to take full advantage of TypeScript's features. Mixing TSX and JSX might lead to confusion and potential type errors that TypeScript is designed to prevent.
Here's an example of how you might use TSX:
import React, { FC } from 'react';
interface Props {
name: string;
}
const MyComponent: FC<Props> = ({ name }) => {
return <h1>Hello, {name}!</h1>;
};
export default MyComponent;
And here's a similar example using JSX:
import React from 'react';
const MyComponent = ({ name }) => {
return <h1>Hello, {name}!</h1>;
};
export default MyComponent;
In the TSX example, we're using TypeScript to define the type of the props that MyComponent expects. In the JSX example, we're not doing any type checking.
