The first time I tried ignite new Project, my Android prerequisite was not found, which led to the Android build failing.

In my case, it came down to missing android in my PATH (when I installed RN ages ago, I don't think this wasn't needed), but I only figured that out by searching for similar git issues on this repo.
It would be super helpful to display suggestions to the user in the case of a missing prerequisite. For example, if Android is missing, some combination of these suggestions would be helpful:
Unable to find 'android' in your PATH.Unable to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable.Make sure you've followed the latest react-native setup instructions at https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started.html before using ignite.If you're only targeting iOS, you may continue now and set up Android another time. The Android files will all be generated, but the build will fail./gif IT SHALL BE DONE!
Bump, just installed it with $ANDROID_HOME in my path and still got the Missing android error.
