I solved the above error by adding react ^15.3.0 as an explicit dependency in the package.json but now I am receiving the below error which is not being resolved even after adding explicit dependencies.

Welcome to Stack Overflow. Unfortunately your node version seems very old. With your package.json I was not able to install your dependancies either (using node v4.4.x , npm v2.14.x ).

Since create-react-app uses Node >= 8.10 and npm >= 5.6 I would recommend you stick with these versions and above. Most dependancies will be fine then.

Don't forget to approve an answer if you're happy with it and good luck coding.
