React native project on android crashes as soon as you open the apk file

So I've been working on a React Native project, I'm on a Mac and when I run my apk file generated by the command ./gradlew assembleRelease and install it on my Google Pixel 4a I try to open the app and it instantly crashes and closes. However, when I run it in the emulator via command react-native run-android it works as expected. During the build, installation and even opening the app on my actual device it never gives a single error. Nothing has changed to my knowledge since the last time I ran the build command and it was working before so I'm lost and confused as to why this is happening. This also my first react-native project so maybe being a noob I'm missing something very obvious. Also iOS has absolutely no issues, any feedback or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

For bare workflow, you have to exclude expo-permissions module:
android/app/build.gradle:
Replace:
addUnimodulesDependencies()
with
addUnimodulesDependencies([exclude: ['expo-permissions']])
for iOS in Podfile:
Replace:
use_unimodules!
with
use_unimodules!(exclude: ['expo-permissions'])
The solution was posted here : https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/10283

Originally I was getting the following errors occurring after installing Jest and Detox as per the instructions in the Setup Guide:

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

If this is due to peer dependency, you can try npm install #jest/reporters manually since peer dependencies are not auto installed in npm 3 upwards.

Try running
npm install #jest/reporters
npm install

Sails fails to lift after simple update

I have a server running on aws elastic beanstalk. It's pretty much been fine. but today when applying an update(Absolutely nothing to do with configs or versioning of modules used) which was simply adding a few words to some text in the web app (Literally the word 'dog'). The app started crashing with 502 nginx gateway errors. I assume this is because the app is not lifying. I went and reverted the change(Though I did not think I had to do so). and the problem persists.
My output when attempting to lift / start the sails app is as follows.
Failed to load helper `web/auth/validate-user-password` as a machine!
A hook (`helpers`) failed to load!
Failed to lift app: ImplementationError: Sorry, could not interpret "web/auth/validate-user-password" because its underlying implementation has a problem:
------------------------------------------------------
• The `cacheable` property is no longer supported. (Please use `sideEffects: 'cacheable' instead.)
------------------------------------------------------
If you are the maintainer of "web/auth/validate-user-password", then you can change its implementation to solve the problem above. Otherwise, please file a bug report with the maintainer, or fork your own copy and fix that.

Indeed, it is probably a update in Sails itself that caused that. Did you try the following configuration for validate-user-password.js ?
module.exports = {
friendlyName: 'Validate user password (strict)',
description: 'Strictly validate a string as the potential "password" for a user.',
sideEffects: 'cacheable',
sync: true,
/* ... rest of content ... */
}

I wonder if the issue is related to a change around this time in the version of machine used by Sails core. This normally wouldn't have affected your app unless the semantic version range (SVR) of your Sails dependency was manually increased. But since this app is using a prerelease of Sails v1, it's likely that was the reason this change got picked up downstream.
As #Alexis N-o mentioned, the solution is to instead of using cacheable: true, to use:
sideEffects: 'cacheable'

Ember.js - The Broccoli Plugin: [object Object] failed with:

I'm new to ember and have set up a sandbox to play around with it. When I type the ember s command I get the error bellow, BUT - and that's the weird thing - the error appears only when I have the Sublime Text open (!?!). If I close the Sublime and type ember s again on the command line everything works fine!

Any ideas how to fix this ???

This error probably happens because NodeWatcher runs out of file watches because it hit the maximum allowed by the system configuration.
