We get a bunch of bugs because people are running old versions of Node that don't support modern JS. We have "engines" entries in the package.json files to catch this earlier but printing an explicit error message will also make this clear.
Test Plan: Changed react-native's package.json to require Node >= 5 and got an error message when running the CLI with Node 4.
This is an early release and there are several things that are known
not to work if you're porting your iOS app to Android.
See the Known Issues guide on the website.
We will work with the community to reach platform parity with iOS.
A cli package that is responsible for:
* starting a new react-native project
* forwarding all other commands to a cli module in react-native
* currently cli.js knows how to start the webserver, in the future it may do things like build the app etc.
