React imports interfaces instead of classes because interfaces in TypeScript define the shape of the data, but do not contain any implementation details. This allows for better type checking and helps to avoid issues that may arise from differences in implementation. Additionally, React components can be defined as functions and interfaces work well for describing the props that are passed to these function components. By using interfaces, React is able to maintain strict typing and ensure that props are used correctly throughout the component tree.
