Error with Redux DevTools Extension using TS: “Property ‘__REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__’ does not exist on type ‘Window’.”?

This is a special case of this question. Redux doesn’t provide types for __REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__ because this function is exposed by Redux DevTools, not Redux itself.

It’s either:

const composeEnhancers = window['__REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__'] as typeof compose || compose;

Or:

declare global {
    interface Window {
      __REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__?: typeof compose;
    }
}

const composeEnhancers = window.__REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__ || compose;

This is already done by @redux-devtools/extension package that contains TypeScript typings. If it’s installed, its imports should be used instead of accessing __REDUX_DEVTOOLS_EXTENSION_COMPOSE__ manually.
