Hey @dawit-michael,

We are aware of the issue of the event listeners not registering because of the virtual DOM from React. We're currently working on a compatibility solution for v1.2.1 which we could launch in a few days/early January based on progress.

Either way, we will launch a separate React + Flowbite library in February and that will make things a lot smoother.

Contributions are welcome and if you find a solution, let us know!

Hey, everyone!

We have a standalone React library almost ready for production: https://github.com/themesberg/flowbite-react

Please check this out if you want to use it for React, Next JS or React Native.

Thanks!

flowbite is now running fine after adding cdn in index.html in reactjs.
please mention clearly in react documentation.

for those who are getting error you can do these changes

add this line in head
add this line in body <script src="https://unpkg.com/flowbite@1.4.5/dist/flowbite.js"></script>

Hi @Aqibrafiq001, You're almost correct, they should mention in the docs how to import flowbite-react components after installing it :(

@Namnika can you please share your Header.js code. and please try restarting.

Namnika Mar 3, 2023

Hi @dawit-michael, Thank you so much for your quick response,
I shared all relevant codes to try to find out errors easily as for your reference,

This is my Header.js file code:


`import React, { useState } from "react";
import { Navbar } from "flowbite-react";
import "./navbar.css";
import Switcher from "../Switcher";

export default function Header() {
  const [isNavExpanded, setIsNavExpanded] = useState(false);

  return (
    <>
      {/* I just only want img with brand name part in my navbar */}
      <div className="w-4/5">
        <Navbar fluid={true} rounded={true}>
          <React.Fragment key=".0">
            <Navbar.Brand href="https://flowbite.com/">
              <img
                src="https://flowbite.com/docs/images/logo.svg"
                className="mr-3 h-6 sm:h-9"
                alt="Flowbite Logo"
              />
              <span className="self-center whitespace-nowrap text-xl font-semibold dark:text-white">
                Flowbite
              </span>
            </Navbar.Brand>
          </React.Fragment>
        </Navbar>
      </div>
    </>
  );
}
`

this is package.json:

"dependencies": { "@testing-library/jest-dom": "^5.16.5", "@testing-library/react": "^13.4.0", "@testing-library/user-event": "^13.5.0", "axios": "^1.3.3", "flowbite": "^1.6.3", "flowbite-react": "^0.4.1", "react": "^18.2.0", "react-dom": "^18.2.0", "react-scripts": "5.0.1", "react-toggle-dark-mode": "^1.1.1", "web-vitals": "^2.1.4" },

this is tailwind.config.css:

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */ module.exports = { darkMode: "class", content: ["./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}" ,"./node_modules/flowbite/**/*.js"], theme: {}, plugins: [require("flowbite-typography"), require("flowbite/plugin")], };
this is index.html :

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/flowbite/1.6.3/flowbite.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <title>React App</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/flowbite/1.6.3/flowbite.min.js"></script>
  </body>

I hope you will get this.. actually, I restarted it but still getting that error, Even then I tried to remove the navbar component and try to use the <Footer> component but still unsuccessful :(

In your tailwind.config.js you should add the following according to this link
content: [ // ... 'node_modules/flowbite-react/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}' ]
Also try to install the package again following the link here

Namnika Mar 3, 2023
