React version dependency issue

[GadgetGeekUK]

On install I get the following:

npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm ERR!
npm ERR! While resolving: [email protected]

I also get this error using React 17. Here is my package.json

React 17 (fork)

[Imaginativeone]

@nosferatu500 Does your fork resolve the React dependency issues?

[nosferatu500]

@Imaginativeone My fork has no issues with deps. I think you can get a warning in the case of React 18. In theory, it should work out of the box, but I have not tested it yet.

I don't like that we're now resorting to custom forks. Project owner should delegate maintenance of this repo to the community.
