may be I haven't set it up correctly?

What library is

AuthProvider

from?

It's a function that I have it uses useContext

Looking at that, you shouldn't need to provide any props to

<AuthProvider>

, since you're already passing them in at the parent level

oh yeah? sorry I feel that I am out of my depth here.... but need to do this TS refactor

No worries. For reference, I've got something similar for my provider (react-native example, but not much different from a regular react example)

very concise code. there isn't much of ts help for supabase yet... I tried looking... for docs

Supabase typescript isn't that much different from regular JS, but TS itself can take a while to get used to. The only TS parts of my screenshot are the

FC

definition (which isn't Supabase specific) and adding

AsyncStorage as any

(which was a workaround to stop TS complaining at the time I wrote this code). The main difference is that you can add types to queries which will tell it what the returned data looks like:

ts
interface ISomeDataStructure {
  image_url: string;
  created_at: Date;
}

SupabaseClient
  .from<ISomeDataStructure>("my_table")
  .select("image_url, created_at")

By adding

<ISomeDataStructure>

after

.from

, VSCode will be able to tell you what properties are available in your data. Everything else is just JS.
