i have the Invariant Violation: Native module cannot be null error and the 2nd error down below. I found online the issue might have to do with not having an ios folder in a module directory, i looked in each of the folders in the local system and on github with them all containing the ios folder

 Invariant Violation: "main" has not been registered. This can happen if:

• Metro (the local dev server) is run from the wrong folder. Check if Metro is running, stop it and restart it in the current project.
• A module failed to load due to an error and AppRegistry.registerComponent wasn't called.

I look through https://reactnative.dev/docs/libraries and stackoverflow. I did npx pod install and npx react-native run-ios but that came back with the same error.

index.js

import { registerRootComponent } from 'expo';

import App from './App';
// registerRootComponent calls AppRegistry.registerComponent('main', () => App);
// It also ensures that whether you load the app in Expo Go or in a native build,
// the environment is set up appropriately
registerRootComponent(App);

any help would be appreciated

** Edit - 20/1/2022

i finally fixed it by changing

module.exports = function(api) {
  api.cache(true);
  return {
    presets: ['module:metro-react-native-babel-preset']
  };

};

to

module.exports = function(api) {
  api.cache(true);
  return {
    presets: ['module:metro-react-native-babel-preset'],
    plugins: ['react-native-reanimated/plugin']
  };
};

Check the library @react-navigation/drawer compatibility with IOS and Android respectively , link it manually sometimes autolinking doesn't work. Ensure you are running correct project , clean build and install pod and check it out.
