App Crashing when running it 'Could not find method compile()'
See original GitHub issueHello,
I have a React Native App where I just installed react-native-video, I followed the steps and added
compile project(':react-native-video') implementation "androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0"
to the android/app/build.gradle file inside dependencies, when I do npx react-native run-android it crashes and throws this error:
`A problem occurred evaluating project ‘:app’.
Could not find method compile() for arguments [project ‘:react-native-video’] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler. `
The two lines I showed are located inside the build.gradle file (android/app/build.gradle) and are at the very end of dependencies {}
Help with this would be very much appreciated, thanks! 🙌

compile has been deprecated since gradel 7.0. try ‘implementation’ instead of ‘compile’.
Plus, if you have an error that failed to resolve scalablevideoview after that above, add jcenter() in allprojects/repositories in android/build.gradle. refer to this
