Question: flow + jest

Do someone have a quick idea how to force flow-typed to install the definitions of jest? I do not see this mentioned in the README, and as jest is not a dependency of my project flow-typed install does not help much.

I think the issue here is there is no way for flow-typed to install the dependencies of react-scripts which is where jest is pulled in from. This could be alleviated if there was a script added that did this likenpm run flow-typed. However it seems that the current thinking is to only have a very limited number of npm scripts included with create-react-app. Would be nice to have a solution to where we didn’t have to include dependencies we wanted flow types for twice. Once in our own project dependencies and once by react-scripts.

It’s better to have a peerDependency in your package.json:

  "peerDependencies": {
    "jest": "20.x"
  },

Then flow-typed update --skip
