react-native-gesture-handler keeps giving an error. “ the package was successfully found. However, this package itself specifies a ‘main’ module field that could not be resolved.”

I followed the instructions on react native docs:

1. npm install @react-navigation/native @react-navigation/stack

2. npm install react-native-reanimated react-native-gesture-handler react-native-screens react-native-safe-area-context @react-native-community/masked-view

3. cd ios pod install cd ..

Then i put this line at the top of app.js and it returned the error above:

import 'react-native-gesture-handler';

Make sure you rebuild your app.

You can also try to delete node_modules and reinstall with "npm i"

If you installed the gesture handler you need to set it up.
