Common errors and how to tackle them

• Android Gradle plugin requires Java 17 to run. You are currently using Java 15.

If you are having issues with Java versions, you should install the Java Version 17 in your Android Studio. In my case I've used coretto-17(17.0.9). Once that is set, you can run the app. There is a command called yarn fix-java that can bypass this error in runtime. You can check it out in package.json.

• Watchman issues If your metro bundler keeps shutting down, run:

watchman watch-del-all
rm -f /usr/local/bin/watchman
rm -rf /usr/local/Cellar/watchman/2023.04.10.00/bin/watchman
