I got to step 3 and get an error in the console.
Warning: React.render is deprecated. Please use ReactDOM.render from require('react-dom') instead.
Does the getting started example need to be updated? Pretty new to both react and meteor. Thanks.
Yes. Current version of React that Meteor uses is 0.14 .1 . The tutorial was made using .12 I think. Instead of this ,
Change into this ,
It’s true that the change does not have a large impact when you know what to do. I’m a newbie trying to learn both React and Meteor at the same time and I got tripped up by this as well. I spent over an hour looking for a typo that I assumed I made before figuring out that this was the cause. (No, I didn’t immediately look at the console for messages – of course I should have done that sooner.)
Nevertheless, it’s us newbies who are following a tutorial like this and we won’t know immediately that this is a simple fix.
Anyhow, thanks to all who have created these great tools. They are amazing!
