In TypeScript, when rendering a number directly within JSX, you may encounter the error “Type ‘Number’ is not assignable to type ‘ReactNode’.” This error occurs because JSX expects elements or strings, not primitive types like numbers, to be rendered directly.
To render a number within JSX without encountering this error, you can convert the number to a string using the toString()
method or template literals. Here’s how you can do it:
const myNumber: number = 42;
// Using toString() method
const jsxElement1 = <div>{myNumber.toString()}</div>;
// Using template literals
const jsxElement2 = <div>{`${myNumber}`}</div>;
Both of these approaches convert the number 42 to a string “42”, which JSX can render without any issues.
Alternatively, you can use the String() function to convert the number to a string:
const jsxElement3 = <div>{String(myNumber)}</div>;
All of these methods will allow you to render a number within JSX without encountering the “Type ‘Number’ is not assignable to type ‘ReactNode’” error. Choose the method that best fits your coding style and preferences.
