Understanding ComponentType

ComponentType is a React TypeScript utility that represents any valid React component:

type ComponentType<P = {}> = ComponentClass<P> | FunctionComponent<P>;

It’s the foundation for:

• Writing functions that accept any component type
• Building HOCs that work with function and class components
• Creating polymorphic component patterns
• Type-safe component composition

Both guides above extensively use ComponentType in their examples and patterns.
