After my first contribution to react-compiler, I wanted to fix this too, but it seems already fixed?

I tried to install [email protected] or 0.0.0-experimental-ba7b8e5-20241213 which is out 2 days ago and on my project arrow function with implicit return are still not optimized, do you know @josephsavona which version include this fix? or maybe there is some option to pass to reactCompilerConfig?

[dimaMachina]

ok, I found why I couldn't see optimized components with implicit returns, setting ReactCompilerConfig.compilationMode: 'all' makes them optimized

update

So I consider this as a still a bug since compilationMode: 'infer' doesn't optimize components with implicit returns

[gkiely]

I'm closing this because the playground error is no longer there, it doesn't optimize the arrow function components but that is a separate issue.
