 This is all you need to do if you want the standard version of React. If you want the version of React with addons, you'd use something like this instead:
 
-    [reagent "0.5.1" :exclusions [cljsjs/react]]
+    [reagent "0.6.0-alpha" :exclusions [cljsjs/react]]
     [cljsjs/react-with-addons "0.13.3-0"]
 
 If you want to use your own build of React (or React from a CDN), you have to use `:exclusions` variant of the dependency, and also provide a file named "cljsjs/react.cljs", containing just `(ns cljsjs.react)`, in your project.
