Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a new example component to the codebase, specifically addressing a gap in documentation regarding the proper typing of Redux action dispatchers in connected components using TypeScript's typeof operator. This addition aims to clarify best practices for developers, improving type safety and maintainability when integrating Redux with React components.

Highlights

• Documentation Enhancement: Added a new example demonstrating the use of typeof for dispatching action types in Redux connected components, directly addressing issue suggestion: add info about dispatched action types #45.
• Type Definitions: Implemented improved type definitions and proper generic type handling within the new example component.
• Code Maintainability: Enhanced code maintainability through clearer type usage for Redux action dispatching in connected components.

Code Review

This pull request adds a helpful example for typing connected components using typeof with Redux action creators. The overall approach is sound. I've provided a few suggestions to improve code conciseness, testability, and adherence to common project conventions.

In the createAction call, the type annotation for the arg parameter is redundant. Since you've specified <number> as the generic argument to createAction, TypeScript can correctly infer that arg is of type number. Removing the explicit type annotation makes the code more concise.

Suggested change

	ping: createAction<number>('ping/PING', (arg: number) => ({
	payload: { arg },
	})),
	ping: createAction<number>('ping/PING', (arg) => ({
	payload: { arg },
	})),

To improve testability, it's a good practice to export the unconnected PingTestComponent. This allows you to import it directly into your test files and test its presentation and logic in isolation, without needing to set up a Redux provider or mock the connect HOC.

Suggested change

	const PingTestComponent: React.FC<Props> = ({ ping }) => {
	export const PingTestComponent: React.FC<Props> = ({ ping }) => {

The file is missing a final newline character. Most files in this project end with a newline, so for consistency, one should be added here. This is a common convention that can prevent issues with some tools and file concatenations.
