react-native environment setup

• I verified that I have not react-native-cli installed globally and be up to date about the React Native environment setup.

Description

Was facing an issue with index.example.ts in ./Config, after checking the closed bug. I renamed it to index.ts
But now, facing the following exception on running the app in device:

Sorry for this bug. BTW it was already reported on the issue #293 (the fix is here). I will fix it after my vacations.
Sorry again and enjoy the boilerplate 😊

@JeremyDolle Thank you for your reply, but the error in this issue is different. Initially, it was same as #293 but now after fixing it as mentioned in that issue. I see the above error now.

An update, I tried without typescript and it works fine. But, its still an issue with Typescript turned on.
Thanks and enjoy your vacation 😊

Oups sorry I do not read correctly.

Can you make a yarn type-check and see if typescript can help you on the import resolution.

[Praveer-grover]

@JeremyDolle , I found the fix for it. It seems the root index.ts (which initializes the App) is missing from the Typescript version of the boilerplate, when I copied index.js from the javascript version to the typescript one. It worked fine.

[JeremyDolle]

Ok nice thanks! I will fix it as soon as possible

Fixed in the last version thanks for the report 😄
