Report #93418

[bug\_fix] TS2741: Property 'onClick' is missing in type '\{ text: string; \}' but required in type 'ButtonProps'.

Provide the missing required property \`onClick\` in the object literal, or mark \`onClick\` as optional \(\`onClick?: \(\) => void\`\) in the \`ButtonProps\` interface if it is not always required.

Journey Context:
Developer is working on a React \(or similar UI\) project with strict TypeScript types. They define a props interface: \`interface ButtonProps \{ text: string; onClick: \(\) => void; \}\`. In a parent component, they render \`\` but forget to add the \`onClick\` handler. TypeScript reports TS2741, stating that \`onClick\` is missing. The developer looks at the error and checks the component definition, realizing they made \`onClick\` required. They initially consider using \`@ts-ignore\` to suppress the error temporarily. They then consider passing a no-op function \`\(\) => \{\}\`, which works but is verbose. Realizing that this button might sometimes be disabled or handled by a parent wrapper, they decide the correct architectural fix is to make \`onClick\` optional in the interface \(\`onClick?: \(\) => void\`\) and add a default no-op inside the component, or ensure every call site provides the handler. They apply the fix, and the type check passes.
