  1. Great article! I especially liked solution 5 and have been doing something similar where I spread the prop types of child components across the parent prop types. However I usually just pass all of the props (that were passed to the parent0 to the child and use object destructuring to “select” props. However I like you solution better with Pick as you are only passing the props expected by the component, nothing more.
