Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < about react HOT 9 CLOSED

Indeed. This is deceptive and you got a really bad error message. We need to fix that (amongst other things).

Right now scripts need to be prefixed with a docblock to assist the transformer. The fact that it's missing here is causing it to not recognize that it should be converting to JSX. We very much want to fix this ASAP. Sorry that it's causing you issues!

In the mean time, just prefixing your code with this docblock should fix your problem. Please close this out if it does.

/**
 * @jsx React.DOM
 */

/** @jsx React.DOM */

This works, thanks tremendously.

Meet this problem too. Maybe it should be warned in the documentation.

Follow up: we've updated to stress this in several places. Hopefully it's okay now.

wow, took me a while to track this down . Can we just fix this the right way?

from react.

I'd like to change the default file extension to .jsx and then transform JSX regardless of if the docblock is present; see #832.

Tried with new version .11.rc, seems no fix in this version! Am I missing something?

@NSAKHAN It's not supposed to work (right now), you're trying to return multiple components for the root, you can only return one.

EDIT: Oh wait, this was for the docblock, you need to add /** @jsx React.DOM */ at the top of your files.
