 yarn start
yarn start v0.24.4
$ react-native-scripts start

Hello! Can you share your project?

[brentvatne]

@nsisodiya - alternatively, can you share your app.json and package.json?

Success! Created my-app at /home/narendra/Billexo/my-app
Inside that directory, you can run several commands:

  yarn start
    Starts the development server so you can open your app in the Expo
    app on your phone.

  yarn run ios
    (Mac only, requires Xcode)
    Starts the development server and loads your app in an iOS simulator.

  yarn run android
    (Requires Android build tools)
    Starts the development server and loads your app on a connected Android
    device or emulator.

  yarn test
    Starts the test runner.

  yarn run eject
    Removes this tool and copies build dependencies, configuration files
    and scripts into the app directory. If you do this, you can’t go back!

We suggest that you begin by typing:

  cd my-app
  yarn start

Happy hacking!

I have tried to debug it, seems like msg is not having the type attribute. following msg is breaking the things.

{ code: 'ENOSPC',
  errno: 'ENOSPC',
  syscall: 'watch /home/narendra/Billexo/billexo-merchant-app/node_modules/lodash/fp',
  filename: '/home/narendra/Billexo/billexo-merchant-app/node_modules/lodash/fp' }

also

$ watch -v
watch from procps-ng 3.3.9

[nsisodiya]

I have resolved this issue my typing following command.

echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=582222 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p

This fixed problem with my ubuntu machine.
Thanks.
