Storybook: Cant run storybook Error: undefined is not a function(evaluating '_iterator[typeof Symbol === "function"?Symbol.iterator:"@@iterator"]()')

[Hanspagh]

Describe the bug
When trying to run storybook with React native 0.57 on android emulator, I get the following error
undefined is not a function(evaluating '_iterator[typeof Symbol === "function"?Symbol.iterator:"@@iterator"]()')
I can fix this by following this comment https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/15902#issuecomment-396963357 and update jsc android versions, but it feels like quite a workaround for having story book in our project.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Create a new react project with RN 0.57
Follow the storybook setup guide
Try to run the project

Expected behavior
Show story book

Code snippets

undefined is not a function (evaluating '_iterator2[typeof Symbol === "function" ? Symbol.iterator : "@@iterator"]()')

Getting the same problem on RN 0.57.8 on Android. I guess storybook is using Symbol.iterator which is not supported in the Android JSC react native uses?

The following workaround is working for me:

I will try that, it seems like an easier workaround.

Unrelated, I think, but we've released a new version of RN in 5.1.0-alpha.8 and above (currently at alpha.11 as of this comment). It includes a lot of core improvements, so if somebody wants to try it out and report back, that would be much appreciated.

Have been using alpha.10 for a few days and haven't seen this issue, not thorough by any means but if other people also haven't seen it then should be safe to close

I am using alpha.31 and I see this error when using the @storybook/[email protected] and I press a button using the actions (I am not using device addons, I am using standard addons via the react-native-server).

I am just using the default stories that are installed after init.

I fixed it with this solution: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/20902#issuecomment-447593887

Hey there, it's me again! I am going close this issue to help our maintainers focus on the current development roadmap instead. If the issue mentioned is still a concern, please open a new ticket and mention this old one. Cheers and thanks for using Storybook!
