Unable to resolve dependency tree

[AltaraceO]

When attempting to install react-usa-map on linux (npm install react-usa-map --save)
I got the following errors:

While resolving: react-app@0.1.0
Found: react@17.0.2
node_modules/react
react@"^17.0.2" from the root project

Could not resolve dependency:
peer react@"^16.13.1" from react-usa-map@1.5.0
node_modules/react-usa-map
react-usa-map@"*" from the root project

Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

I had this problem a month or so ago. The only way I was able to resolve it was to change my react and react-dom dependences both to ^16.13.1. If you're not using any version 17-specific features of react, this may work for you. @gabidavila says on her bio page that she needs help with this repo, so I wouldn't expect version 17 compatibility soon.

The library can be installed without having to downgrade to version 16 of react and react-dom by using the --force option when installing it:

npm i --save react-usa-map --force

This --force option will also need to be specified when running npm install or npm ci.

I'm using React 17 and it works great.

Thanks for the tip. I must admit that I'm hesitant to use --force on production code, as that could allow other potentially serious incompatibilities to be bypassed.
