Script cleanAndSetup causes Typescript compile error in serviceWorker.ts about react-boilerplate-cra-template

This seems to be due to the fact that cleanAndSetup completely wipes out the react-app-env.d.ts and in removing the NodeJS namespace with the type definition for PUBLIC_URL.

cleanAndSetup doesn't delete the react-app-env.d.ts file. Are you sure of that?

Does this also happens when you don't eject?

@Can-Sahin - Oh no sorry, cleanAndSetup doesn't delete the react-app-env.d.ts file but it modifies the content to just:

/// <reference types="react-scripts" />

// To solve the issue: https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/issues/31245
/// <reference types="styled-components/cssprop" />

Doing so we lose the original types definitions, which includes the PUBLIC_URL definition:

declare namespace NodeJS {
  interface ProcessEnv {
    readonly NODE_ENV: 'development' | 'production' | 'test';
    readonly PUBLIC_URL: string;
  }
}

As for the eject, I'm not so sure. I can try tonight and let ya know :)

/// <reference types="react-scripts" /> line includes the PUBLIC_URL within it self if you navigate inside you will see. Your problem originates from something else and I don't know why

https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/lib/react-app.d.ts

Here you can see the contents of the file which includes your stuff.
