 It is preferrable to use the chainable `.concat(...)` and `.prepend(...)` methods of the returned `MiddlewareArray` instead of the array spread operator, as the latter can lose valuable type information under some circumstances.
 
-## getDefaultMiddleware import

-While the callback notation with `configureStore` shown in the last example is the recommended way of using `getDefaultMiddleware`, it can also be imported to be used independently from 'configureStore':
-
-```ts
-// file: reducer.ts noEmit
-
-export default function rootReducer(state = {}, action: any) {
-  return state
-}
-
-// file: store.ts
-import { getDefaultMiddleware } from '@reduxjs/toolkit'
-
-interface State {

-}
-
-const middlewares = getDefaultMiddleware<State>()

-The benefit of using the callback notation is that the `State` type is already pre-bound, which might prevent circular type references when trying to specify generics by hand.
