App build failure from monorepo [expo/node_modules/react-native-reanimated/android/../../react-native/package.json (No such file or directory)]

Description

I’m unable to build the app. It throws an error. It works fine with Expo Go, no issues there.

I’ve tried playing around with the version of react-native-reanimated but no luck

Error looks like this:

Hey @tomekzaw, Thanks for the help.

I was able to fix the error. So, there seemed to have been multiple versions of react-native-reanimated in my project, which I figured out by inspecting yarn.lock and by running yarn why react-native-reanimated

You may check the monorepo here, https://github.com/joseito-terence/build-error-repo

repo |—apps | |----nextjs project | |----expo project |—packages | |----core

I checked the node_modules react-native-reanimated isn’t hoisted to the root node_modules of the workspace. it exists in /apps/expo/node_modules and react-native is in /node_modules
