Flow Type Checking
Arguments:
- $ARGUMENTS: Renderer to check (default: dom-node)
Renderers
| Renderer | When to Use |
|---|---|

Default, recommended for most changes |
dom-browser |
Browser-specific DOM code |
native |
React Native |
fabric |
React Native Fabric |
Instructions
- Run
yarn flow $ARGUMENTS(usedom-nodeif no argument) - Report type errors with file locations
- For comprehensive checking (slow), use

Common Mistakes
- Running without a renderer - Always specify or use default
dom-node - Ignoring suppressions - Check if
$FlowFixMecomments are masking real issues - Missing type imports - Ensure types are imported from the correct package
