Explanation of Change

Part of the tsconfig cleanup, phase 2 (web/native split). The upcoming web tsconfig uses moduleSuffixes: [".web", ""], which also applies inside node_modules. So it typechecks against the libraries' .web.d.ts files, and some of those have bugs. This PR fixes the third-party typing so the web tsconfig has no errors when the switch lands. Measured with the web/native tsconfigs applied, web goes from 74 errors to 4. The remaining 4 belong to the switch PR: the src/types move and the react-native export condition.

Patches (each one documented in its details.md):

  • react-native-svg 001: web Defs accepts children. Fixed upstream in fix: allow children on web Defs software-mansion/react-native-svg#3056, not released yet.
  • react-native-svg 002: web BaseProps.style was typed Iterable<unknown>, but the web runtime accepts plain style objects too.
  • react-native-gesture-handler 002: the web v3 FlatList / TextInput get the same type exports as native, and FlatList gets its ref prop.
  • expo-image-manipulator 003: the web module is typed as an instance, not the class (fixed upstream in expo-modules-core by [web][modules-core] Type registerWebModule as returning a module instance expo/expo#49197), and web resize() makes width / height optional like native.
  • expo-video 002: the web VideoView ref handle is typed, and player accepts the public VideoPlayer type.
  • react-native-nitro-fetch 002: Response.redirect() accepts string | URL like the standard, converting with String(url). This is the only runtime change in the patches, in a method the App doesn't call.

App code:

  • react-native-svg.d.ts: declares the SvgProps the App passes to <Svg>, because react-native-svg's web entry exports no prop types.
  • Lottie refs are typed with ComponentRef<typeof LottieView>. SkeletonRect takes its props from ComponentProps<typeof Rect>, because there is no RectProps on web.
  • registerPrefetchOnAppStart: the native implementation moves to index.native.ts, and the web no-op becomes index.ts. Every platform keeps the same implementation (rsbuild picks the no-op; Metro and Jest pick the native one).
  • Small type fixes: optional swipeThreshold in ReanimatedModal types, Promise<void> in usePressLoading, Base64URL.encode narrowed to string | Uint8Array, and marginBottom: 0 on inline images in useMarkdownStyle (live-markdown's own default, so nothing changes visually).

PR Author Checklist

  • I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
  • I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
    • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
    • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
    • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
    • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
    • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
    • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
  • I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
  • I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
    • Android: Native
    • Android: mWeb Chrome
    • iOS: Native
    • iOS: mWeb Safari
    • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
  • I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
  • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
  • If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
  • I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
  • If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
    • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
    • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
  • If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
  • If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
  • If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
    • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
    • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
  • If the PR adds or modifies the UI:
    • I asked an AI agent to review the changes for accessibility issues and addressed its findings.
    • I tested with a screen reader (VoiceOver on macOS) and verified all new/changed elements are reachable with a logical focus order.
    • I verified all new/changed elements have meaningful accessible names and roles.
    • I verified state changes are announced (e.g. checked/unchecked, expanded/collapsed, selected).
  • I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
  • If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.

The two Buffer.from(value) branches read like a copy-paste slip, and someone could "simplify" them back later and break the typecheck. Could you double check?

I changed to be more visually distinct

    encode: (value: string | Uint8Array): Base64URLString => {
        // `Buffer.from` has separate overloads for strings and byte arrays, so each type needs its own call.
        const bytes = typeof value === 'string' ? Buffer.from(value, 'utf8') : Buffer.from(value);
        return bytes.toString('base64').replaceAll('+', '-').replaceAll('/', '_').replace(/=+$/, '');
    },

About the reason, right now isn't a problem but with the upcoming native tsconfig it won't accept the current string | Uint8Array in Buffer.from anymore in the way it's accepting today, so we need to use a condition to narrow the type.

To make both Buffer.from distinct from each other I'm passing utf8 to the first one, which is right and it's the default parameter for strings anyway.

    • The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
    • For Class Components, any internal methods passed to components event handlers are bound to this properly so there are no scoping issues (i.e. for onClick={this.submit} the method this.submit should be bound to this in the constructor)
    • Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
    • All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
    • The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
  • If any new file was added I verified that:
    • The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
  • If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
    • A similar style doesn't already exist
    • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG)
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)

    • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
    • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.

Deploy Blocker #106350 was identified to be related to this PR.

After investigation I have initial findings that its might not be this pr but #104479 as 104479 one did touch the share feature while this one only related to tscofig

also the author already commented about it #106350 (comment)
