Issue: Create Layout.tsx React component for the application layout

Background

We need to create a reusable Layout component that will be used across our application to maintain a consistent look and feel. This component will be a React component written in TypeScript using ES6 syntax, such as arrow functions. The component will use Tailwind CSS for styling, and it should not import any CSS files directly or use custom CSS classes.

Task

Create a new React component called Layout.tsx in the src/components directory. This component will be responsible for rendering the layout of our application, including the header, main content, and footer.

Requirements

1. Import the necessary dependencies at the top of the file:

   • React
   • Any required components or TypeScript interfaces from the types.ts file

2. Define a Props interface for this component. The Props interface should include the following properties:

   • children: React.ReactNode - The child elements to be rendered within the layout.

3. Create a functional component called Layout that accepts the Props interface as its argument. Use the ES6 arrow function syntax for the component definition.

4. Inside the Layout component, render the following structure using Tailwind CSS classes for styling:

   • A header with a fixed position at the top of the page, containing the application logo and navigation links.
   • A main content area that will render the children prop passed to the component. This area should have a minimum height to ensure the footer is always at the bottom of the page.
   • A footer with a fixed position at the bottom of the page, containing any relevant copyright information or additional links.

5. Make sure to use appropriate semantic HTML elements for each section of the layout (e.g., <header>, <main>, <footer>).

6. Export the Layout component as the default export of the Layout.tsx file.

Example

Here's a rough example of what the Layout.tsx file should look like:

import React from "react";

interface Props {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}

const Layout: React.FC<Props> = ({ children }) => {
  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col min-h-screen">
      <header className="fixed top-0 w-full bg-gray-800 text-white">
        {/* Add application logo and navigation links here */}
      </header>

      <main className="flex-grow">
        {children}
      </main>

      <footer className="fixed bottom-0 w-full bg-gray-800 text-white">
        {/* Add copyright information or additional links here */}
      </footer>
    </div>
  );
};

export default Layout;

Acceptance Criteria

• The Layout.tsx file is created in the src/components directory.
• The Layout component is a functional component that accepts a Props interface.
• The component renders a header, main content area, and footer using semantic HTML elements and Tailwind CSS classes.
• The children prop is rendered within the main content area.
• The Layout component is exported as the default export of the Layout.tsx file.
