Research direction

Start from the withTheme and PureComponent examples in the issue and investigate how the wrapped component's Flow props are expected to be declared. Document an idiomatic Flow example that prevents theme from being required at JSX call sites; no file or test is identified in the issue.

Description

question

I create a component with Props type that includes a theme:

type Props = {
  theme: MyTheme,
  otherProps: any,
};

class MyCmp extends PureComponent<Props> { ... }

Then I export it like this:

export withTheme(MyCmp);

Then when I import it and use in JSX I'm getting a Flow error that theme prop is required.

What is the idiomatic example of defining withTheme component with Flow?
