'ReactTooltip' cannot be used as a JSX component.

See original GitHub issue

(alias) class ReactTooltip
import ReactTooltip
'ReactTooltip' cannot be used as a JSX component.
  Its instance type 'ReactTooltip' is not a valid JSX element.
    Type 'ReactTooltip' is missing the following properties from type 'ElementClass': render, context, setState, forceUpdate, and 3 more.ts(2786)

Can’t seem to use it as just <ReactTooltip /> in my tsx code.

Similar issue here. Just popped up this morning. Wondering if it was some downstream dependency that changed. Here is the full stack trace:

'ReactTooltip' cannot be used as a JSX component.
  Its instance type 'ReactTooltip' is not a valid JSX element.
    The types returned by 'render()' are incompatible between these types.
      Type 'React.ReactNode' is not assignable to type 'import("/Code/interface/node_modules/@types/react-helmet/node_modules/@types/react/index").ReactNode'.
        Type '{}' is not assignable to type 'ReactNode'.
          Type '{}' is missing the following properties from type 'ReactPortal': key, children, type, props

Same issue here. Even with @types/react-tooltip installed.
