Few day ago I have a problem with: ReactDOM.render is no longer supported in React 18. Simple solution is to use:

import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";

in index.js file

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";
import "./index.css";
import App from "./App";
import reportWebVitals from "./reportWebVitals";

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById("root"));
root.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <App />
  </React.StrictMode>
);

reportWebVitals();

There was a few changes wile providing next version of React 18, for example:

// Before
import { render } from 'react-dom';
const container = document.getElementById('app');
render(<App tab="home" />, container);

// After
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
const container = document.getElementById('app');
const root = createRoot(container);
root.render(<App tab="home" />);
import * as ReactDOMClient from 'react-dom/client';
import App from 'App';

const container = document.getElementById('app');

// Create a root.
const root = ReactDOMClient.createRoot(container);

// Initial render: Render an element to the root.
root.render(<App tab="home" />);

// During an update, there's no need to pass the container again.
root.render(<App tab="profile" />);
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from 'App';

const container = document.getElementById('app');

// Initial render.
ReactDOM.render(<App tab="home" />, container);

// During an update, React would access
// the root of the DOM element.
ReactDOM.render(<App tab="profile" />, container);
root.render(<App tab="profile" />);
