React-native: Couldn't find preset “es2015” relative to directory

[hotarzhang]

When I'm trying to start a new react-native project from scratch I'm getting this message.
Error: Couldn't find preset "es2015" relative to directory "/Users/hotar/Dev/Projects"
and code is:

OptionManager.prototype.resolvePresets = function resolvePresets(presets, dirname, onResolve) {
    return presets.map(function (val) {
      if (typeof val === "string") {
        var presetLoc = (0, _resolve2.default)("babel-preset-" + val, dirname) || (0, _resolve2.default)(val, dirname);
        if (presetLoc) {
          var _val = require(presetLoc);
          onResolve && onResolve(_val, presetLoc);
          return _val;
        } else {
          throw new Error("Couldn't find preset " + (0, _stringify2.default)(val) + " relative to directory " + (0, _stringify2.default)(dirname));
        }
      } else if ((typeof val === "undefined" ? "undefined" : (0, _typeof3.default)(val)) === "object") {
        onResolve && onResolve(val);
        return val;
      } else {
        throw new Error("Unsupported preset format: " + val + ".");
      }
    });
  };

Do you have a file called .babelrc in one of the parent-folders /Users/hotar Dev or Projects?

@fab1an Year. It's. Thank you. And I did this

$ npm i babel-preset-react-native --save-dev
$ echo '{"presets": ["react-native"]}' > .babelrc
