Description

Currently documented as: React.Children.map(children, function[(thisArg)])

What's this function[(thisArg)] <--

I don't spend a ton of time in javascript, but I can't find anything that indicates this is what's meant to go here.

The actual signature seems more like:
React.Children.map(children, function, thisArg)
