Is the release candidate version of React 16 support on v3.3.0-alpha.0? Using React 16.0.0-rc.3, I am getting this react-modal error:
_processChildContext is not available in React 16+.
This likely means you have multiple copies of React and are
attempting to nest a React 15 tree inside a React 16 tree using
unstable_renderSubtreeIntoContainer, which isn't supported.
Try to make sure you have only one copy of React
(and ideally, switch to ReactDOM.createPortal).
There shouldn't be anything preventing React 16 from working. I wonder if you have 2 different versions of react installed?
I just perform a new app using the following and got the same error. I suspect is react-modal.
â–¶ create-react-app demo-app
â–¶ yarn add react@next react-dom@next
â–¶ getstorybook
â–¶ yarn run storybook
Visit the browser console give me these:

@mech that's weird, I followed the reproduction instructions and I don't get those errors even after opening some modals. Can you please upload the project you get to GitHub as a repo?
You are right, I go to my 2nd laptop and try to use React 16.0.0-rc.3 with create-react-app and it worked fine. Sorry for that, I am surprised my main machine got issues.
Hmm, I'm running into this too. Not sure why yet.
Try making sure your yarn or NPM is latest version. When I upgrade my yarn from 0.x to 1.x, it works.
In my case rebuilding the lock file from scratch helped - I removed node_modules together with yarn.lock file and re-installed all of the dependencies. Maybe it helps somebody.
I have the same problem when I want to use to Modals from 'react-materialize'. And this project have all update. I really need this component. If you can help me, I will be thank
Guys I had this issue and it's gone now after I upgraded my yarn to 1.1.0
@Fowowski's fix worked for us!
I had the same issue. It was caused by react-modal ( used by storybook). React-modal installed its own old version of react. Removing node_modules direcory from react-modal package solves the problem.
