Licensing incompatibility with peer dependency immutable-js
Do you want to request a feature or report a bug? Licensing issue
What is the current behavior?
Draft-js is released under MIT, but it only works together with immutable-js ~3.7.4, which is licensed under the old BSD + Patents license. Since npm/yarn will install version 3.7.6, we must force the use of immutable-js 3.8.2 or higher to avoid any licensing issues. This might not be apparent to everyone.
See also #1425.
Huh.
Thanks for pointing this out. Updating immutable has been on the radar for a while. I'll bring this licensing issue up to more people to try and figure it out.
Another option is to surgically de-box the immutable.js data into standard JavaScript data. I count 138 hits:

An easier route might be to do a clean-room implementation using React 17 and standard js.
Immutable.js 4.0 has been released two months ago (under MIT licence), might be worth upgrading.
Also worth nothing that someone mentioned an issue over at immutable.js related to draft.js
My org's legal team has also given us a warning that immutable 3.7 cannot be used in prod applications due to its outdated license. This is a blocker issue for projects that use draft-js (mostly indirectly as a sub-dependency). I hope this gets looked into asap. Thanks. @mrkev
