• I tried using the @types/xxxx package and had problems.
• I tried using the latest stable version of tsc. https://www.npmjs.com/package/typescript
• I have a question that is inappropriate for StackOverflow. (Please ask any appropriate questions there).
• Mention the authors (see Definitions by: in index.d.ts) so they can respond.

The type of ReactFragment currently includes {}, which causes the new, safer handling of typeof x === 'function' to only narrow x to Function.

This same code would work as intended in TS 3.0.

I don't know why an empty object is considered a valid fragment; this allows literally anything to be passed as a child as long as it's not "fresh".
