Answer 1

Installing react should fix the error

npm install react --save

Also, you may try upgrading your react-native install. react-native is as v0.30.0 now

npm update react-native

Answer 2

In my specific case I was running npm install in the wrong directory. I thought I was in my project directory but was one level higher. This meant react was missing from installed packages (because there were none) and thus gave this error.
