Can ui-router/react support React18 new features?

[Fangfanghao]

If we want to support React18 new features ui-router/react, we have to replace ReactDOM.render to createRoot

and replace unmountComponentAtNode with unmount

Do we have a plan to suppport this?

[kadamgreene]

Yes, please. I'm getting errors about missing source maps because of Webpack 5 + React 18.

Any news on this?

Currently No now but, For developers:

Stay informed: Keep an eye on the official announcements from the React and ui-router teams regarding updates and compatibility with React 18.

Check documentation: Review the documentation and release notes of ui-router and React 18 to understand any changes required for compatibility.

Be prepared for updates: Once React 18 is officially released, update your dependencies and check for any potential breaking changes in ui-router or other libraries you are using.

This issue makes no sense. Ui-router/react does not mount the component tree. You will find no use of ReactDOM.render and unmountComponentAtNode in its codebase. It works just fine with React 18.
