How to troubleshoot a code component issue

If you encounter the error message "We detected a problem in one of your code components/overrides" in Framer, it indicates an issue in your custom React code.

The most common cause of this error is when something other than a function is returned inside a useEffect hook. For instance, you might have:

useEffect(() => counterRef.current++, [someState])

The above code would return a number to React because it's an arrow function, causing a crash. To fix this, add curly braces around the function body:

useEffect(() => { counterRef.current++ }, [someState])
