Why should I use PropTypes in my React application?

Using PropTypes helps you validate the props passed to your components, ensuring they receive the correct data types.

Can you give me an example of how to use PropTypes?

Sure! You can import PropTypes and define them like this: MyComponent.propTypes = { name: PropTypes.string.isRequired };.

What happens if I don't use PropTypes?

Without PropTypes, you might encounter bugs due to incorrect prop types, which can lead to unexpected behavior in your app.

Are there alternatives to PropTypes?

Yes, you can use TypeScript for type checking, which provides a more robust solution for type safety in your React applications.
