+Allowed props
+--------
+Instead of writing about the type of each prop, hopefully the following typescript definition serves the purpose:
+
+https://github.com/bendtherules/react-vis-gridarea/blob/065f56b5214fd9f282bdade68a35544e9af60949/src/grid-area.tsx#L16
+
+```typescript
+enum Direction {
+  VERTICAL = 'vertical',
+  HORIZONTAL = 'horizontal'
+};
+
+type NumberOrString = number | string;
+
+interface GridAreaProps {
+  direction: Direction;
+  highlightRegion: Array<[NumberOrString, NumberOrString]>;
+
+  style: {
+    [styleName: string]: any;
+  }
+
+  // event listeners
+  onValueMouseOver?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>, value: [NumberOrString, NumberOrString]) => void,
+  onValueMouseOut?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>, value: [NumberOrString, NumberOrString]) => void,
+  onValueClick?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>, value: [NumberOrString, NumberOrString]) => void,
+  onSeriesMouseOver?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>) => void,
+  onSeriesMouseOut?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>) => void,
+  onSeriesClick?: (ev: React.MouseEvent<SVGElement>) => void,
+
+  // generally supplied by xyplot
+  // DON'T PASS THIS MANUALLY
+  marginTop: number;
+  marginBottom: number;
+  marginLeft: number;
+  marginRight: number;
+  innerWidth: number;
+  innerHeight: number;
+}
+```
+
+To describe some of the props:
+
+1. `direction` - The direction along which the grid area takes full length.
+2. `highlightRegion` - Its an array of array containing start and end value for each area. The values are along the cross-axis (wrt `direction`) and each value start end creates one area. Currently, you can't create horizontal as well as vertical gridareas using a single instance. To have both, use two separate GridArea instances.
+3. `style` - Just passed forward to each rect/area
+4. `onValueMouseOver`, `onValueMouseOut`, `onValueClick`, `onSeriesMouseOver`, `onSeriesMouseOut`, `onSeriesClick` - Some event handlers which pass the value/series as second param
