watchman is required

[Mike Fikes]

I tried natal FutureApp but didn't have watchman installed at the time, and this resulted in a failure. For me it looks like the same as facebook/react-native/issues/1920

Perhaps this could be addressed by simply adding watchman (as a recommendation) to Natal's list of deps enumerated at the beginning of the Usage section of README.md. Or, maybe simply a pointer to https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started.html#requirements, but this seems to defeat the simplicity that Natal brings if you start having people follow manual instructions again. Hrm. Worth thinking about this one at least, IMHO.

This one bit me as well, definitely hard to tell it's related to a missing
dep.
