Origin

This package was forked from babel-preset-react-hmre which seemingly isn't maintained anymore and the Github repo was deleted.

As it had an outdated dependency on redbox-react in React >=15.5.0 a warning was printed about a deprecated prop types import. This package has that dependency updated and so no warning should be printed.
