Unable to resolve path to module 'react'. (import/no-unresolved)

Question

Seems like i am missing something here, it should work without errors but eslint keeps throwing the following:

Unable to resolve path to module 'react'. (import/no-unresolved)

Missing file extension for "react" (import/extensions)

when trying to import React from 'react'

here is some debug info:

package.json

  "devDependencies": {
    "react": "16.3.2",

If you're using React Native it may help to add .native.js as an allowed extension in your .eslintrc file.
Also, if you're using Typescript then .ts and .tsx will help too.

"settings": {
  "import/resolver": {
    "node": {
      "extensions": [".ts", ".tsx", ".native.js"]
    }
  }
}
