Unexpected token argument in render method

I'm trying to start Express.js server with react application that I downloaded, but when I do npm start on my server there is error

ERROR in ./src/app.jsx
Module build failed: SyntaxError: Unexpected token (6:7)
  4 | import 'react-select/dist/react-select.css';
  5 |
> 6 | render(<div>Place your application here</div>, document.getElementById('app-root'));

Why would it be?

Finally got it working by settings presets in webpack.config: presets:['es2015','react'] - for error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token import and npm install babel-preset-react + babel-preset-es2015

Try using this

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import 'react-select/dist/react-select.css';

ReactDOM.render(
  < div > Place your application here < /div>,
  document.getElementById('root'));
