@fluent/react examples are outdated

[rlr]

In the meantime, is there any real project out there using the latest versions of @fluent/* that I can use as a guide? This whole project seems to be missing a quickstart unless I missed it somewhere? I guess the ReactBindings wiki page looks useful if it was using the latest version.

An example in typescript for bonus points 😄

Also, how do I install the types now? npm install @types/fluent-react, for example, used to work but npm install @types/@fluent/react blows up (Invalid package name "@types/": name can only contain URL-friendly characters.

Apart from the package name the code from both the examples and the wiki page should still work as described. Another place to find examples would be the tests, e.g.: https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent.js/blob/master/fluent-react/test/localized_render_test.js

Wrt typings, looks like the naming convention for scoped packages is different there: https://stackoverflow.com/a/47296781/1501916
But from scanning DefinitelyTyped it seems like we haven't changed that yet. @huy-nguyen, I saw you created the typings, do you maybe know more about this?

Not quite true. bundle.addMessages(MESSAGES_ALL[locale]); doesn't work for example. After reading the source code, I learned that now you do bundle.addResource(new FluentResource(MESSAGES_ALL[locale]));.

I got it all working now though. Unfortunately, my repo is private for now but I'll share once it is public. Or I'll help update the examples if I get some spare cycles. Thank you!

Oh true, I forgot about that API change. Thanks for the correction!
