I get an error message on my localhost port on the browser, I haven't deployed yet my code:

TypeError: Object(...) is not a function

NewEvent src/events/pages/NewEvent.js:51

Here my react versions in package.json:

  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^16.13.1",
    "react-dom": "^16.13.1",
    "react-router-dom": "5.2.0",
    "react-scripts": "^3.2.0",
    "react-transition-group": "^4.4.1"
  },

I have import in my pages NewEvent.js :

import React, {useCallBack , useReducer} from 'react';

In the same page I have nested in a function another function:

  const [formState, dispatch] = useReducer(formReducer, {
    inputs: {
      title: {
        value: '',
        isValid: false
      },
      description: {
        value: '',
        isValid: false
      }
    },
    isValid: false
  });// this is the initial state that needs  to be update in the reducer

  const inputHandler = useCallBack((id,value,isValid) => {
 
  dispatch({
    type: 'INPUT_CHANGE',
    value: value,
    isValid: isValid,
    inputId: id,
   });
 }, []);

The issue shows in the browser is the following line :

  const inputHandler = useCallBack((id,value,isValid) => {

useCallBack is supposed to stop the code to loop when there is several function.. I checked online in other post it seems to be link with the version of react, but I am not sure and quite confused.

Here the messages in the console:

Anyone has an idea of the issue, please?

So I spent some time attempting to recreate this error to eventually realize this is an unfortunate case of a typo.

In short, do this: import React, { useCallback, useReducer } from "react"; (notice the lowercase b in callback).

It's hard to glean what the actual error is, given only this much information: TypeError: undefined is not a function.

However, the MDN docs on TypeError's (among other things) states:

Maybe there is a typo in the function name?

Hope this helps!
