Hello guys. I’ve found solution to this problem:

https://reformatcode.com/code/ios/react-native---reactcomponenttreehookpurgeunmountedcomponents-is-not-a-function

In the end, I figured that the versions of react and react-native packages that I were installed didn’t “match”. I saw the message npm WARN react-native@0.48.4 requires a peer of react@16.0.0-alpha.12 but none was installed. (I had a previous version installed because of another warning that I got).

As soon as I installed react@16.0.0-alpha.12 instead, the problem was solved. Apparently facebook has removed the function ReactComponentTreeHook.purgeUnmountedComponents from the code, it is not to be used

It helped me too. Good luck.
