Ponder doesn't run with React 19

[Sam-Scolari]

Version

0.9.24

Current behavior

In situations where Ponder needs to be ran in a project that requires React 19, ponder dev fails due to a dependency (Ink) that doesn't support the latest version of React.

The error message

var ReactCurrentOwner = ReactSharedInternals.ReactCurrentOwner;

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'ReactCurrentOwner')
    at $$$reconciler (C:\Users\samsc\Documents\GitHub\ponder-react-19\my-app\node_modules\react-reconciler\cjs\react-reconciler.development.js:491:46)  
    at file:///C:/Users/samsc/Documents/GitHub/ponder-react-19/my-app/node_modules/ink/build/reconciler.js:59:16

There is currently an open issue for this since December, but with little to no support from the maintainers of Ink.

Expected behavior

No response

Steps to reproduce

Thanks, really appreciate the repro.

It might be time to surgically extract Ink.

I just published prerelease 0.9.24-next.1 which removes the ink and react dependencies in favor of a custom terminal UI implementation.

Could you please

1. Try this version with your environment to confirm that removing the react dep solves the problem
2. Validate that the new terminal UI is working for you (ponder dev)

Thanks!

Just updated and tried this, ponder dev works now! Haven't deployed my indexer to production yet so ilyk if I have any issues with that, but it does seem to be resolved.
