Description: Backwards compatibility polyfill for React class components
 React version 17 will deprecate several of the class component API
 lifecycles: componentWillMount, componentWillReceiveProps, and
 componentWillUpdate.  A couple of new lifecycles are also being added
 to better support async rendering mode.
 .
 Typically, this type of change would require third party libraries to
 release a new major version in order to adhere to semver. However,
 the react-lifecycles-compat polyfill offers a way to use the new
 lifecycles with older versions of React as well (0.14.9+) so no
 breaking release is required. This enables shared libraries to
 support both older and newer versions of React simultaneously.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
