+
+Ensure added imports of types use the `type` modifier
+
+If we'd previously add an import to `ReactNode` (e.g. in `deprecated-react-fragment`),
+the codemod would import it as a value.
+This breaks TypeScript projects using `verbatimModuleSyntax` as well as projects enforcing `type` imports for types.
+
+Now we ensure new imports of types use the `type` modifier:
+
+```diff
+-import { ReactNode } from 'react'
++import { type ReactNode } from 'react'
+```
+
+This also changes how we transform the deprecated global JSX namespace.
+Instead of rewriting each usage, we opt for adding another import.
+The guiding principle being that we keep the changes minimal in a codemod.
+
+Before:
+
+```diff
+import * as React from 'react'
+
+-const element: JSX.Element
++const element: React.JSX.Element
+```
+
+After:
+
+```diff
+import * as React from 'react'
++import { type JSX } from 'react'
+
+const element: JSX.Element
+```
+
+Note that rewriting of imports does not change the modifier.
+For example, the `deprecated-vfc-codemod` rewrites `VFC` identifiers to `FC`.
+If the import of `VFC` had no `type` modifier, the codemod will not add one.
+
+This affects the following codemods:
+
+- `deprecated-react-fragment`
+- `deprecated-react-node-array`
+- `scoped-jsx`
+
+`type` modifiers for import specifiers require [TypeScript 4.5 which has reached EOL](https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped#support-window in DefinitelyTyped) which is a strong signal that you should upgrade to at least TypeScript 4.6 by now.
