React-native-windows: .57 react-native has been release can this repo follow the upgrade?

It would be awesome for all of this to be working again.

Either this module needs to be updated to support 0.57.* or a workaround guide needs to be added to explain how to fix the error caused by the current incompatibility for the _Getting Started_ guide.

Basically, before you can run react-native windows, delete package-json.lock, open package.json and change the "dependencies" section for react-native to this:
"react-native": "0.55.*"

Then save & close, and re-run npm install; you might need to nuke the entire node_modules directory and run npm install, but try it without, first.

Waiting for React Native Windows to work seamlessly with RN 5.7 is actually on our critical path. It would be great for a maintainer to respond with a roadmap or ETA on progress for this.

I'll prioritize getting a 0.57 release next week. In the meantime, you should be able to target rozele/react-native-windows#0.57-dev

Thanks for your response @rozele that's great news!

[xtianus79]

@rozele how do you run your git repository the entire thing is controlled by the rnp cli thing which is checking for verisons and erroring out that i am not on the right version... i've tried bypassing it but it is so baked in there.

[rozele]

0.57.0-rc.0 is out!

[xtianus79]

@rozele Funny, after the AirBNB article, and some other factors including some of things you have said... we've decided to go with Xamarin.

[rozele]

@xtianus79 cool! I think Xamarin is great 😊
