Describe the bug

I am using Vite bundler to create React apps. I am using Recoil as my state management preference and facing an issue while using the useRecoilValue, useRecoilState, useSetRecoilState and the related hooks. React is running perfectly fine with Vite without Recoil. The browser console is showing an error which I have pasted below:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'ReactCurrentDispatcher' of 'import_react.default.__SECRET_INTERNALS_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED' as it is undefined.

It looks like recoil is not maintained anymore and doesn't work with React 19 facebookexperimental/Recoil#2318

Your repro seems running fine with React 18 https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-dd7jjdw1?file=src%2FApp.jsx. Closing since this is not vite or plugin issue.
