createContext in a Server Component

Why This Error Occurred

You are using createContext in a Server Component but it only works in Client Components.

Possible Ways to Fix It

Mark the component using createContext as a Client Component by adding 'use client' at the top of the file.

Before

app/example-component.js
import { createContext } from 'react'
 
const Context = createContext()

After

app/example-component.js
'use client'
import { createContext } from 'react'
 
const Context = createContext()
