I’m using node v17.7.1
and tested with reanimated 2.2.0 and 2.2.4.

Any hint on how to fix it?

Thanks

#2

Try node 16 and npm 8

#3

We don’t support reanimated v2.

#4

Thanks, I downgraded to 1.13.1 and then error is gone… but I got a new one

<PATH>/node_modules/react-native-gesture-handler/android/src/main/java/com/swmansion/gesturehandler/react/RNGestureHandlerModule.kt: (17, 32): Type mismatch: inferred type is ReactApplicationContext? but ReactApplicationContext was expected

What can be the cause?

#5

How exactly are you building the SDK?

#6

I’m just running the script /android/scripts/release-sdk.sh on MacOS

#7

After downgrade react to version 14, now it compile correctly!
