It has dependency on:

1. npm i prop-types --save From official ReactJs docs: React.PropTypes is deprecated link
2. npm i react --save
3. npm i @blueprintjs/core --save

You can easily modify and remove 3rd, but while i was using this lib while building https://www.geekystats.com/ it's there.

I needed auto complete field and blueprint doesn't have it yet. I've created my own, you can use it for whatever needed.
