Dependency problem during Quickstart

[bugeats]

I just sat down to try ReasonReact for the first time. The ReasonReact homepage currently has this quickstart copy pasta:

npm install -g bs-platform
bsb -init my-react-app -theme react-hooks
cd my-react-app
npm install && npm start

However, npm install is currently failing with:

ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree

While resolving: <my-new-project>@0.1.0
Found: bs-platform@9.0.2
node_modules/bs-platform
  dev bs-platform@"^9.0.2" from the root project

Could not resolve dependency:
peer bs-platform@"^7.1.1" from reason-react@0.9.1
node_modules/reason-react
  reason-react@">=0.7.1" from the root project

Which is kinda a bad look, ya know?

As of today, here's the deps that I could get to resolve and then boot the server:

    "dependencies": {
        "react": "^16.8.1",
        "react-dom": "^16.8.1",
        "reason-react": ">=0.7.1"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "bs-platform": "^7.1.1",
        "moduleserve": "^0.9.0"
    }

The key thing is that I changed bs-platform to ^7.1.1.

This is not good indeed, there now appears to be several ways to theoretically get a Reason React app up, none work, what gives?

reason-react: ^0.9.1 has the same issue. It throws an error on installation.
In my case, if I force npm install, it throws an error but completes installation and app work anyway.

Released a new version (0.10.0) that should fix any installation issue with latest bs-platform (v9). Let me know if you find any issues and will try to fix them.

Thanks for reporting those and sorry for the late response/fix.
