Script warning in Nextjs [closed]

I need help, I keep getting this script warning in Next.js version 16. I am trying to do light mode and dark mode using next-themes

## Error Type
Console Error

Error Message

Encountered a script tag while rendering React component. Scripts inside React components are never executed when rendering on the client. Consider using template tag instead (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/template).

at script (<anonymous>:null:null) at ThemeProvider (src/components/ThemeProvider.jsx:7:10) at RootLayout (src\app\layout.js:23:9)

Code Frame

5 | 6 | export function ThemeProvider({ children, ...props }) { > 7 | return <NextThemesProvider {...props}>{children}</NextThemesProvider>; | ^ 8 | } 9 |

Next.js version: 16.2.6 (Turbopack)

Here is my global.css because I am using tailwind v4 to do the light mode and dark mode.

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Nunito:wght@300;400;500;600;700&display=swap');

@import "tailwindcss";

@custom-variant dark (&:where([data-theme="dark"], [data-theme="dark"] *));

Here is my layout.js

import { Nunito } from "next/font/google";
import { ThemeProvider } from "@/components/ThemeProvider";
import "./globals.css";

const nunito = Nunito({ subsets: ["latin"], weight: ["400", "600", "700"], });

export const metadata = { title: "StoryMind", description: "Stories & Summaries, powered by AI", };

export default function RootLayout({ children }) { return ( <html lang="en" suppressHydrationWarning > <body className={${nunito.className} antialiased h-full min-h-full flex flex-col}> <ThemeProvider attribute="data-theme" defaultTheme="system" enableSystem disableTransitionOnChange > {children} <div id="modal-root"></div> </ThemeProvider> </body> </html> ); }

Here is my ThemeProvider

"use client";

import * as React from "react"; import { ThemeProvider as NextThemesProvider } from "next-themes";

export function ThemeProvider({ children, ...props }) { return <NextThemesProvider {...props}>{children}</NextThemesProvider>; }
