[Warning?] Are readme instructions somehow harmfull?
See original GitHub issueI executed:
npm install --save react-native-device-info
It made my whole repository environment stop working. I had to execute npm install again, and here’s the output:
added 794 packages, removed 2 packages and updated 33 packages in 63.55s
I’m yet adapting myself to react-native and even npm itself. But it seems to me that readme instructions made me downgrade my modules and even removed hundreds of stuff from here!
So if I’m mistaken or did something wrong, please tell me – it is my best interest to understand more about it. Otherwise, isn’t better to put a warning there or something? Maybe tell people to run npm install right after this installation step? Idk.

I had the same issue. Removed node_modules and re-ran npm install.
Now I have the another problem after running the link command.
Update: So … linking broke everything. Even xCode would not open the project. Thankfully I had a backup. Evidently, from what I’ve read, the original creator does not really have time to maintain this. What a shame. I was super excited about it. I am going to look for something else. I do not have high hopes though
Sorry, I never replied. I didn’t have any problems using this either time.
