Things I Learned

Due to react-router-dom being updated to v6, for <Route>, component was replaced with element. In order to be able to use Context.Provider, the global state, I need to set element={<someComponent/>} and NOT AS element={someComponent()} otherwise useContext() will always return undefined for someComponent.
