The official React Native documentation can be found here.

React-Native Cannot find Module '../../App' – React native

When creating the SRC folder and inserting the appropriate items, react-native started giving this error:

AppEntry.js:1 Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '../../App'

Uncaught ReferenceError: process is not defined

index.js:1 ./node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js:3
Module not found: Can't resolve '../../App'
  1 | import registerRootComponent from 'expo/build/launch/registerRootComponent';
  2 |
> 3 | import App from '../../App';
  4 |
  5 | registerRootComponent(App);

From what I understand it is not finding the App with the path which is in "AppEntry.js".

However, AppEntry is by default in package.json:

"main": "node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js"

What should I do to fix?

    You have moved your App.js or App.ts from root folder to ‘src’ so in appEntry you need to update your path from:

    import App from '../../App';

    To:
    import App from '../../src/App';

    Or you just can move back App.tsx to root folder

    You can set the initializer path using the "main" property in package.json (note if you do so you need to write something like this.

    import { registerRootComponent } from "expo";


import App from "./App";
export default registerRootComponent(App);

    An example is https://github.com/trajano/spring-cloud-demo/blob/83887627274afa1970b5a0861e7c7d2e27efecce/expo-app/src/init/index.ts#L10-L13

    with the package.json line https://github.com/trajano/spring-cloud-demo/blob/rework/expo-app/package.json#L5

    Doing this gives you more flexibility, and I generally don’t see the downside to doing it.
