Steps To Reproduce

1. as the documentaion said 😃 npx react-native init AwesomeProject then i got

 Run instructions for Android:
    • Have an Android emulator running (quickest way to get started), or a device connected.
    • cd C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\AwesomeProject && npx react-native run-android

so my second command was cd C:\Users\bader\Desktop\AwesomeProject && npx react-native run-android

it start building until it finished then unable to load script make sure you are either running a metro server run react-native start

since 3 years until today, whenEver i decide to learn react native I got such silly bugs, because of that i kept leaving it behind and learn something else . come on, if the initial installation process has an issue , then how the code itself is going to be ? my friends are working on mac and they told me they have no issue there, unless they use windows !!! i was following each step in the documentaion, so everything should be fine as usual

installation process that i did are same as the fucking documentaion said

Same happens following exact same steps but using TypeScript template. There is a way to solve for both though, temporarily.

Go to your root folder of the project > node_modules > metro-config >src > defaults >blacklist.js.

Open said file (VS Code, etc) and on the top you will see a var called SharedBlacklist. Change that var from what it is to what my attached txt says, which I got from GitHub also but can’t find from whom to give credit.

It works like normal with that fix.

blacklist.txt

It is a fairly critical bug considering it appears on a clean project, hope it gets fixed soon.

Thank you for your report. We fixed this just now with the release of Metro 0.56.4 and 0.57.0. Update your packages and re-create your project and things should work for you again 😃 Sorry for the inconvenience.
