React 19 Compatibility

We are still working on the compatibility of React 19.0.0. The last blocking issue is that a dependency we use is not compatible with React 19. We are working on a homebrew solution to replace this dependency. Hopefully, expect to complete this work next week. You can subscribe to our GitHub issue to get the latest updates.
