Support for react-native-web

Great library!

I was trying to use it to create a theme for react-native-web with it aliased in webpack to react-native. Unfortunately, 'react-native/lib/deepDiffer' doesn't exist in react-native-web.

I'm not sure what the best solution is...depend on another library already in npm, to write your own, or to publish Facebook's deepDiffer as a separate npm module to avoid this mismatch?

Thank you for reporting!

I have updated to new version. Now you can use with react-native-web by adding this code to your webpack.config.js file:

module.exports = {
  // ...
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      'react-native/lib/deepDiffer': 'react-native-theme/lib/deepDiffer',
      // ... Other aliases
    }
  }
}

Thank you for the suggestion and pointers.

This solution would work if I install react-native in addition to react-native-web (which doesn't require react-native).

Ideally, for react-native-theme to be compatible with react-native-web, react-native-theme would be compatible with either library without both being installed (including removing the peerDependency on react-native in react-native-theme).

This is good as a work around, but maybe not a general purpose solution? I guess it depends on your goals for the library if you want to go as far as a fully replaceable react-native with react-native-web.

Thank you!

Thank you for the advice. I'll think about it.
