React-hot-loader: @types/react peer dependency causes npm/yarn warnings

[okovpashko]

Description

We don't use TypeScript in our project and after updating to the latest react-hot-loader version we started getting the following warning during the dependencies installation:

warning " > [email protected]" has unmet peer dependency "@types/react@^15.0.0 || ^16.0.0".

Please consider removing this package from the peer dependencies because not all the projects use TypeScript

Environment

React Hot Loader version: 4.12.19

Run these commands in the project folder and fill in their results:

1. node -v: v13.12.0
2. npm -v: 6.14.4

Then, specify:

1. Operating system: MacOS
2. Browser and version: Chrome 80

Reproducible Demo

npm init --yes && npm i react react-dom react-hot-loader

Maybe the field peerDependenciesMeta can be added to package.json, so the dependency may be made optional.

With this, if the dependency is found on the project, versions will be compared, but no warning will be thrown if not installed.

It was added a while ago

Thank you for the quick response! The warning is gone after updating to v4.12.21.
