So I tried to use react-native on my brand new MacBook but I'm having some issues.
(I'm on MacOs BigSur Version 11.2.2 with a M1)
I followed the step on the environnement setup on react native website.
brew install node
brew install watchman
Installed Xcode and went to preferences > location > Command line tools > Xcode 12.4 (12D4e)
sudo gem install cocoapods
Then, I tried to do : npx react-native init tesr (I misspelled test and wrote tesr but I guess it's not really important).
and here I got this error :
✖ Installing CocoaPods dependencies (this may take a few minutes)
✖ Installing CocoaPods dependencies (this may take a few minutes)
error Error: Failed to install CocoaPods dependencies for iOS project, which is required by this template.
Please try again manually: "cd ./tesr/ios && pod install".
So, I try cd ./tesr/ios && pod install
and I see this :
### Command
```
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/cocoapods/1.10.1/libexec/bin/pod install

[!] Oh no, an error occurred.
Even if there was an error, I wanted to try to run-ios, it obviously didn't worked, and then I went on some other stackOverflow page that got the same problem than me and couldn't solve my problem.
I'm new to macOS and apple product so I'm probably really bad at this but yeah if you have something that can help, I'll try it.
I found a way to make it work, you just need to install Rosetta ! Here is a little bit of help : https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861
