Implement Typescript

[llioor]

I opened thread here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58958243/implement-typescript-with-react-admin for search optimizations.

I did: create-react-app with --typescript flag

Then install react admin version 3.0

and I got this in console:

Could not find a declaration file for module 'react-admin'. 
'.../node_modules/react-admin/lib/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
Try `npm install @types/react-admin` if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts)
 file containing `declare module 'react-admin';`

Any advice please or a guide please?

TypeScript types is an ongoing effort. No need for a Github issue to track it.

Can we get a guide? What is the error I got?

This error shows up because you’ve configured typescript to work only with typescript modules, and react-admin only publishes a JS module. If you still want to use react-admin, you’ll need to alter your TS configuration. Refer to the TS doc for a guide on how to do that.

Convert JS files from the ra-ui-matreial-ui package into TSX files and open a PR.
