What: Adding typescript annotations about some functions binding

Why: Because of the eslint rule @typescript-eslint/unbound-method being triggered when using the css callback function :

<ClassNames>
      {({ css }) => {
        
      })}
</ClassNames>

error Avoid referencing unbound methods which may cause unintentional scoping of this.
If your function does not access this, you can annotate it with this: void, or consider using an arrow function instead

Class method functions don't preserve the class scope when passed as standalone variables ("unbound"). If your function does not access this, you can annotate it with this: void, or consider using an arrow function instead.

I think you should consider the other option (using an arrow function). I don't understand why ESLint would report issues about this on regular arrow functions and I don't feel like including this change to satisfy an odd linting quirk (if there is one).

I think the advice part about using an arrow function is about the imported function … which is an arrow function already

I don't understand why ESLint would report issues about this on regular arrow functions

To my understanding, that's because its type is declared in an interface and used as such with let css: ClassNamesContent['css'] and so seen as a "Class method function", shadowing the original "arrow function type"

You'd have to set up a repository with the error reproduced there so I could take a look at it.
