Research direction

Open the React tutorial at the linked URL and inspect the “Connect frontend to API” section, especially the TypeScript path. Update the guidance to mention manually adding tsconfig.json so GraphQL imports resolve, then verify the revised instructions are clear for both JavaScript and TypeScript users.
