Description
Hello! One cannot proceed with the instructions as is in Chapter 15 (https://nextjs.org/learn/dashboard-app/adding-authentication).
In this chapter, we add export default function LoginForm() to the login-form.tsx file, as shown here: https://github.com/vercel/next-learn/blob/main/dashboard/final-example/app/ui/login-form.tsx#L14
However, the compiler is upset with TypeError: (0 , react__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_3__.useActionState) is not a function or its return value is not iterable.
In case I missed anything, here's my code as well: https://github.com/beckrecca/pReactice/blob/main/app/ui/login-form.tsx
I haven't been able to find report of a similar error. Is there any workaround?

Research direction
Reproduce the Chapter 15 authentication steps and inspect app/ui/login-form.tsx alongside the linked final-example version. Check the project’s React and Next.js setup around useActionState and compare it with the reported error. Done means the chapter works as written, or the instructions clearly document the required fix or workaround.
