React with typescript defining useState type as an object with string key/value pairs

Question

In React with typescript, I tried defining the useState type as an object with string key/value pairs. I couldn't find the answer so I thought I'd add it.

I've tried this <{ [key: string]: string }>> and some similar variations, but haven't successfully cracked it yet.

Answer 1

So this works -> useState<{ [key: string]: string }> :-)
