packager error with example app

[mmmurf]

loading the following URL in the browser:

http://localhost:8081/index.worker.bundle

results in the packager error printed to the terminal running the packager:

Error: Error validating module options: child "platform" fails because ["platform" must be a string]

using http://localhost:8081/index.worker.bundle?platform=android (and presumably ios) works.

you should start the worker in another port, 8081 is RN default packer port that will be used by the main code.
