Please Update Experience Builder Documentation.

The Experience Builder online documentation needs badly a update on all pages to reflect the changes that come with ArcGIS ExB 1.19, ReactJS 19 and Node JS 22.

~~For example, the ExB starter widget as instructed here, it cannot be implemented as described because you will get a webpack error due to incompatibility with the newer version of Node.js.~~

In the newer versions of React JS., only function based components are used, but sadly most of the ESRI ExB documentation still refer to the class based components.

@Jianxia ?

Following the directions on the Starter Widget, I was able to make it in ExB 1.19 with Node 22.16.

With that said, @Jianxia, we are at a point where better documentation is more important to Experience Builder than new features.

You are correct. I was making a novice error on the directions of the starter widget.
