Sometimes, While running your first init command to build application in react native it doesn’t create the app or will create an empty folder with project name. In such case, you need to run the below command to get your project build with all the dependent files or folder.

Solution:

npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init MyProject --version latest

you can replace MyProject with your project name in above command.

And your project will get created with all the dependent files and folders.

CASE 2: While project creation if you receive below error—

Error Failed to install the app. Command failed with exit code 1: gradlew.bat app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081 FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Solution:

If you got above error while running the app then it means gradle version that is being used by react native app is not compatible with android and java sdk and jdk.

So, Go to Project file-> android->gradle->gradle-wrapper.properties and change the gradle version to one previous that is mentioned in it. For ex- 8.6 to 8.5.

Save a change and run app again. The App will run successfully in your mobile device.

Thankyou! Stay Tuned….
