react/forward-ref-uses-ref

forwardRef passes the parent's ref to your component as a second parameter. A component that only takes props drops it, so the parent's ref.current is never set. Either the ref parameter is missing or you don't need the wrapper.

The rule reports a function with exactly one parameter. Your editor offers two suggestions: add a ref parameter, or remove the forwardRef wrapper.

  return <input type="text" value={props.value} ref={ref} />;
});

const Label = props => <label>{props.text}</label>;
