React native – Could not find com.facebook.react:react-native:0.74.4

I am trying to learn react native. I have a react native project using metro. Doing ./gradlew build but getting error Could not find com.facebook.react:react-native:0.74.4. I tried adding exclusiveContent as suggested in one SO article but didn’t helped. I am getting this error after I have added react-native-safe-area-context and react-native-screens. Any help to fix this error would be much appreciated.

    Why are you adding react-native in build.gradle? Remove it from there.

    dependencies {
    implementation("com.facebook.react:react-android:0.74.4")
    implementation("com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0")
    implementation("com.android.tools.lint:lint-gradle:31.5.1")

    if (hermesEnabled.toBoolean()) {
        implementation("com.facebook.react:hermes-android:0.74.4")
    } else {
        implementation jscFlavor
    }

    The React native dependency is automatically added to the package.json.

    "dependencies": {
    "@react-navigation/native": "^6.1.18",
    "@react-navigation/native-stack": "^6.11.0",
    "react": "18.2.0",

    //Here it is added automatically hence you do not need to add it in `build.gradle`.

    "react-native": "0.74.4",
    "react-native-safe-area-context": "^4.10.8",
    "react-native-screens": "^3.33.0"
  },

    Remove this line:

    implementation 'com.facebook.react:react-native:0.74.4'

    Meanwhile there’s version 0.74.5.
