Reporting a bug?

Provide as much information as you can to reproduce the issue.
If the issue is not reproducible, it can't be fixed!
After updating from react-static v7.4.2 to v7.5.0, If I try to run react-static start or react-static build. I get anthe following error:

ERROR in multi (webpack)-dev-server/client?http://localhost:3001 (webpack)/hot/only-dev-server.js react-hot-loader/patch ../lib/bootstrapPlugins.js ../lib/bootstrapTemplates.js index.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'react-hot-loader/webpack' in '/Users/wesreed/git/Virtual-Events/UC-International-Conference/node_modules/react-static/node_modules'
 @ multi (webpack)-dev-server/client?http://localhost:3001 (webpack)/hot/only-dev-server.js react-hot-loader/patch ../lib/bootstrapPlugins.js ../lib/bootstrapTemplates.js index.js main[4]

I tried to manually install react-hot-loader which fixed the error message, but now when I run react-static build and try to server the dist folder the site hangs on load and eventually crashes with no error message

Environment

Run and copy the result of:

npx envinfo --system --npmPackages react* --binaries --npmGlobalPackages react* --browsers

Steps to Reproduce the problem

Base your steps off of any freshly installed react-static template!

1. Start from basic template
2. update react-static (because the template doesn't install the same version at the react-static that created it)
3. see the error mentioned above

[Derk-Jan Karrenbeld]

react-hot-loader is a peer dependency, so the manual install step is correct. I think the other issue you encountered is #1564. I'm closing this in favour of that.
