Invalid hook call on fresh project

[Tim Willaert]

Receiving following error:

I created a project with create-react-app and installed the package through npm i react-animated-cursor

My App.js component just looks like this:

I tried clearing node_modules and npm installing again, but that doesn't help. Maybe I'm just being a dumb-dumb (I'm pretty new to React).
Really hoping to get this fixed, this looks like an awesome package!

Sorry to hear. Familiar with that error, but not sure where that could have originated honestly. I haven’t installed via CRA myself though. Will try that and see what’s up.

Thanks for the quick response.
I started a new project without using create-react-app and it works fine now!

Fixed.

Tested the package with CRA (and Parcel) and runs as expected.

You can reinstall or update to react-animated-cursor@2.1.8

Turns out the package did in fact include its own version of React.
Just had to move React/React Dom to dev and peer deps in package.json.
