# react-annotation
Full documentation: [http://react-annotation.susielu.com](http://react-annotation.susielu.com)

## Setup
### Using NPM
You can add react-annotation as a node module by running
```bash
npm i react-annotation -S
```
If you're new to using React, I suggest using [create-react-app](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app) to start your project
