Answer 1

Try adding import/resolver to your Eslint settings:

  "settings": {
    "react": { "version": "detect" },
    "import/resolver": { "typescript": {} }
  }

Maybe you will need to install it too:

$ yarn add -D eslint-import-resolver-typescript

If that doesn't work, you could change this rule

"@typescript-eslint/no-use-before-define": "off"

like this:

"no-use-before-define": "off"
