React Navigation is the most popular navigation library used in react native projects. Today, I created a new react native project with the latest version 0.61.1. Then I installed react navigation library (version 4.0.10) by following instructions from their official documentation. But when I tried to run the project an error had shown as below:
A problem occurred evaluating project ‘:react-native-reanimated’. > Cannot get property ‘supportLibVersion’ on extra properties extension as it does not exist
Yes, the issue is with react native animated library (version 1.2.0) which I installed among react navigation dependencies. This error forced me a Google search and I got here. The current solution for this react native react navigation issue is as follows.
Go to YourProject/android/build.gradle file and add supportLibVersion = “28.0.0” to the ext {} as given below:
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "28.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 16
compileSdkVersion = 28
targetSdkVersion = 28
supportLibVersion = "28.0.0"
}Now, re run the project and the issue would be gone.
