i just started a project and im trying to start the but it already has this error showing:
error: node_modules\react-native\Libraries\Image\ImageAnalyticsTagContext.js: Property body[6] of BlockStatement expected node to be of a type ["Statement"] but instead got "AssignmentExpression"
this is a known issue caused by a bug in a newly released version of babel. it will impact all new react-native and expo apps. you can resolve it with yarn resolutions in a new project:
--- a/package.json +++ b/package.json @@ -25,5 +25,8 @@ }, "jest": { "preset": "react-native" + }, + "resolutions": { + "@babel/plugin-transform-react-display-name": "7.14.5" } } After insert resulutions key on the package.json, run yarn install

Run this command:
