Doesn't work out of the box, `Module not found: 'react/lib/React'` about re-start

Seems to be a compatibility issue with react-native-web. It is not ready for react 16 yet. Look at the note here.

• Replace your package.json with the content in the gist below:
  https://gist.github.com/amoghbanta/d0bf78ff4e29100a311f9ab2987cf9c6
• delete your node_modules:
  rm -rf node_modules
• install new dependencies:
  yarn install or npm i
• finally run the project and also delete the cached content
  yarn run web --reset-cache

Do tell me if this works for you. I'll update the dependencies and add a note in readme.

Great, thanks for the fast reply @amoghbanta

I've followed your instructions (as well as removing the yarn.lock file) and got this error:

Failed to compile.

Error in ./~/react-native-web/dist/index.js
Module build failed: ReferenceError: Unknown plugin "transform-react-remove-prop-types" specified in "/Users/User/dev/testing/react-native/r10/node_modules/react-native-web/package.json" at 0, attempted to resolve relative to "/Users/User/dev/testing/react-native/r10/node_modules/react-native-web"
    at Array.map (native)
 @ ./index.web.js 1:164-187

After adding babel-plugin-transform-react-remove-prop-types as dependency the above error was resolved and the demo runs smoothly now. 🎉

Thanks a lot!

I had the same issues with the fresh install. I'm currently trying to play with React 16 which was installed anyway as the dependency of [email protected], so I have upgraded react-dom too. Have hit all these 3 errors, the final one being somethign wrong with the config in my understanding. So I had to add it to my dev dep too but that shouldn't be needed: necolas/react-native-web#607
