Hello stereobooster, I think I found a workaround

Hey stereobooster, I also wanted to do a project to use both creat-react-app and react-map-gl, I did encounter the same issue you have, that's why I am here. I just tried another mapbox react wrapper react-mapbox-gl. And I booted up an initial project...maybe you can also try it

Does it tries to look take approach of Controlled Components? E.g. HTML <input> is stateful, it is can itself respond to events (keyboard, for example) without React (Flux) data flow, but react folks managed to make input look like it is standard React component.

I don't quite get your question, but if you mean is it possible using react wrapper to control the original mapbox-gl, I guess the answer is yes. just check his demos http://alex3165.github.io/react-mapbox-gl/

No. Read about Controlled Components.

By default html (pure html, no react) input can handle it's events by itself, you do not need to write JS code.

But in React you need to handle input events for it to update state:

  handleChange(event) {
    this.setState({value: event.target.value});
  }

ah.ok. I got what you are saying now. but it is out of my scope currently now, I just wanna a easy boilerplate using mapbox and react.

Well at least Marker/Popup can be done right way alex3165/react-mapbox-gl@50fca94
