Cannot create polkadot keyring with react native

Question

I created a new react native project with this command:

npx react-native init AwesomeProject

installed package @polkadot/keyring, and created a default keyring:

const keyring = new Keyring();

After launching the project I get an error:

TypeError: Conversion from 'BigInt' to 'number' is not allowed.

Some libraries are just not ment to work with react native, only with node js or web client. This is one of those cases
