That is one of my pains with react-native and the JS-community. Their tooling sucks, because they use javascript for everything.
Having a NullPointerException/"undefined" in my code means I have to go hunt the bug for a couple of minutes. Having it in my buildtool means I my productivity drops to zero for an hour.
RN also keeps using deprecated and old version of android-buildtools.
Fun fact:
"NullPointerException" gives 2.47 million results on google.
"cannot read property of undefined" gives 3.71 million results.
(Background: I'm a Java, Kotlin and JavaScript developer, shipped an app using react-native for the Views only, but Kotlin for the business-logic. I also picked some fights with the RN-maintainers on github issues.)
