[javascript] Home does not contain an export named Home

I was working with create-react-app and came across this issue where I get Home does not contain an export named Home.

Here's how I set up my App.js file:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import logo from './logo.svg';
import './App.css';
import { Home } from './layouts/Home'

class App extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div className="App">
        Hello
        <Home />
      </div>
    )
  }
}

export default App;

Now in my layouts folder I have the Home.js file. which is setup like following.

import React, { Component } from 'react';

class Home extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <p className="App-intro">
        Hello Man
      </p>
    )
  }
}

export default Home;

As you can see I am exporting the Home component but I get an error in my console saying this.

What is going on?

Use

import Home from './layouts/Home'

rather than

import { Home } from './layouts/Home'

Remove {} from Home

We also can use

import { Home } from './layouts/Home'; 

using export keyword before class keyword.

export class Home extends React.Component{
    render(){
        ........
    }
}

For default

 import Home from './layouts/Home'; 

Default export class

 export default class Home extends React.Component{
    render(){
        ........
    }
 }

Both case don't need to write

export default Home;

after class.

You can use two ways to resolve this problem, first way that i think it as best way is replace importing segment of your code with bellow one:

import Home from './layouts/Home'

or export your component without default which is called named export like this

import React, { Component } from 'react';

class Home extends Component{
    render(){
        return(
        <p className="App-intro">
          Hello Man
        </p>
        )
    }
} 

export {Home};

put export { Home }; at the end of the Home.js file

I just ran into this error message (after upgrading to nextjs 9 some transpiled imports started giving this error). I managed to fix them using syntax like this:

import * as Home from './layouts/Home';

This is the solution:

• Go to your file Home.js
• Make sure you export your file like this in the end of the file:

export default Home;

This is a case where you mixed up default exports and named exports.

When dealing with the named exports, if you try to import them you should use curly braces as below,

import { Home } from './layouts/Home'; // if the Home is a named export

In your case the Home was exported as a default one. This is the one that will get imported from the module, when you don’t specify a certain name of a certain piece of code. When you import, and omit the curly braces, it will look for the default export in the module you’re importing from. So your import should be,

import Home from './layouts/Home'; // if the Home is a default export
