Declaration or statement expected "export type"

See original GitHub issue

import type/export type construct started being supported on TypeScript 3.8 and I just wanted to point that out because CRA still ships with 3.7.2 and this syntax won’t work if you don’t update TypeScript. It might be nice to add that on the documentation or use a different syntax for exporting types.

Yeah, I didn’t mean to create a big of a deal with that, sorry. I’ll add the note and keep this issue as a reference. I’ll add the error to the title so people will find it when searching for it.

When I was trying CRA before, I updated typescript, which wasn’t a big deal. (I’m not sure if that holds now, because CRA v3 had some issues with typescript+eslint even without jotai.)

Would you like to add some notes in ./docs/typescript.md? PR appreciated.
