Error: Cannot find module 'react' in version '^2.0.0-beta.27'

Hi!

I created a new project yesterday using the stable version of next.js. However, I was feeling adventurous and tried upgrading next using the command npm install --save next@beta. Everything went well, except for some unmet peer deps.:

── UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY react@^15.4.2
── UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY react-dom@^15.4.2

When I ran npm run dev, Next refuses to start and throws the following error message:

❯ npm run dev

> [email protected] dev /Users/vernon/Sites/ecurring-homepage
> next

Error: Cannot find module 'react'

The only dependencies that are listed in my package.json are:

  "dependencies": {
    "next": "^2.0.0-beta.27",
    "styled-components": "^1.4.3"
  }

Am I missing something?

As of beta.27 react and react-dom are not included, all you need to do is install them e.g npm i -S react react-dom

Thanks! Sorry, not sure how I could've missed that...
