Error: Cannot find module 'signal-exit'

[weex]

Setting this up on Mac OS X Big Sur 11.6.1 with node version v16.13.0 and ran the commands in the readme until this one failed. Installed signal-exit with npm install -g signal-exit but that didn't help.

$ npx react-native run-android

can you add the output of npx react-native info to the issue?

See a few Not Founds below. I don't do mobile dev usually so that might be why I'm missing something.

I notice you don't have the android SDK installed correctly, or at all. Try following: https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup completely, and then try running android again! This repo assumes you have react native set up. I can add a note about that to the README.

After you do the react native setup, let me know if you're still having the issue and I can help further :)

[robertjcolley]

Just updated the readme with prerequisites of adding react native here b5762bad50f8ac166bb4bd624fc58fd3e4b47097

Ok, I installed react-native and Android Studio and got much further. App is crashing now so created a new issue.
