ReactJS: React.render is not a function and React.createElement is not a function

Question

I found a problem in my code when I was trying to use these two functions in my React version 15.2.0, nonetheless, I found a workaround but I would like to know if there\'s

Answer 1

I was getting error: "React.createElement is not a function" and for my situation the fix was to change this:

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";

TO THIS:

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";

This was in a TypeScript file so i'm not sure it applies to non-TypeScript or not.
