            });
            ReactDOM.render(
                <FractalComponent.AppContainerContext.Provider
                    value={appContainer}
                >
                    <RandomGif.default />

import RandomGif, { actions, actionTypes } from "@fractal-components/random-gif";

const appContainer = new AppContainer({
    reduxDevToolsDevOnly: false
});

ReactDOM.render(
    <AppContainerContext.Provider value={appContainer}>
        <RandomGif />
    </AppContainerContext.Provider>,
    document.getElementById("root")
);
