Summary:
We don't (yet) treat these the same as any other modules because we still have special resolution rules for them in the packager allowing the use of `providesModule`, but I believe this allows people to use npm react in their RN projects and not have duplicate copies of React. Fixesfacebook/react-native#2985.
This relies on fbjs 0.6, which includes `.flow` files alongside the `.js` files to allow them to be typechecked without additional configuration. This also uses react 0.14.5, which shims a couple of files (as `.native.js`) to avoid DOM-specific bits. Once we fix these in React, we will use the same code on web and native. Hopefully we can also remove the packager support I'm adding here for `.native.js`.
This diff is not the desired end state for us – ideally the packager would know nothing of react or fbjs, and we'll get there eventually by not relying on `providesModule` in order to load react and fbjs modules. (fbjs change posted here but not merged yet: https://github.com/facebook/fbjs/pull/84.)
This should also allow relay to work seamlessly with RN, but I haven't verified this.
