• Flipper 0.70
• React Native 0.63.3
• Vanilla npx react-native init
• Flipper doctor is all green but manage plugin list is empty
  

Console error when starting Flipper

Is it only 0.70 version problem? If so where can I get previous version?

I switched back to v0.69 and everything was fine. ok👌

You can find all versions here -> https://github.com/facebook/flipper/releases

Thanks @QuentinArnault 0.69 shows the plugin list, but I had to delete the ~/.flipper before installing 0.69

It also has this error in the console:

> Error from getpwuid_r: 102 (Operation not supported on socket)
Uncaught (in promise) Error: Method not implemented.

Hi all, thanks for the details. We'll push a new release soon, but for now you can just create empty folder "installed-plugins" in "~/.flipper" and everything should work after that on version 0.70.0.
