What does the error “JSX element type '…' does not have any construct or call signatures” mean?

Question

I wrote some code:

function renderGreeting(Elem: React.Component) {
    return Hello, !;
}

If you are using material-ui, go to type definition of the component, which is being underlined by TypeScript. Most likely you will see something like this

export { default } from './ComponentName';

You have 2 options to resolve the error:

1.Add .default when using the component in JSX:

import ComponentName from './ComponentName'

const Component = () => 

2.Rename the component, which is being exported as "default", when importing:

import { default as ComponentName } from './ComponentName'

const Component = () => 

This way you don't need to specify .default every time you use the component.
