  • Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. – Community Jan 04 '22 at 04:19

I believe it is related to Getting error 'digital envelope routines', reason: 'unsupported', code: 'ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED'

Try setting below before running npx react-native start

export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider

Right, this will cause issues with release apk in iOS. I am wondering if adding the environment variable in the script in Bundle React Native code and images in the build phases might be ok for this. I can share how it goes. Once again seem its the node upgrade that might have triggered the issue. A nice read can be found below
