I am failing to install iOS dependencies using pod install annd after pressing enter button to run pod install.
Node Version: v16.16.0
NPM Version: 8.11.0
Working Process which I followed:
First way to install pod: Firstly install npm then install pod
Second way to install pod: after deleting node_modules then run pod install
Failed to install to follow the both of rules as mentioned before and to check the error, please check the attached file.

I'm creating an NPM Package. How do install 'peerDependency' when a user installs my NPM package?

I'm having an issue with react-native-vector-icons. I have it install as a dependency and peerDependency, but when I install my NPM Package into a project, I'm getting an error. To my understanding, a peerDependency is a dependency used for npm packages so packages of my NPM library are installed. Is that correct?
In my NPM library, I have manually linked react-native-vector-icons in my podfile and info.plist:
podfile
pod 'RNVectorIcons', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons'
info.plist

Babel-Loader Error Plugin/Preset files are not allowed to export objects, only functions

After updating all my outdated npm packages to #latest, my electron app fails to start, giving the error

Using node v12.6.0 on Mac OS X Mojave 10.14.5

I am moving my answer from comment due to lack of space there :)
Try using new packages for babel-core, babel-register and presets, replacing the old ones since they are depricated (babel-core, babel-presets-env, etc):
#babel/core - https://www.npmjs.com/package/#babel/core,
#babel/presets-env - https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-preset-env,
#babel/presets-react - https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-preset-react,
#babel/presets-stage-0 https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-preset-stage-0,
#babel/polyfill - https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-polyfill and
#babel/register - https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-register.
Then try deleting package.lock, and running again npm i . If that is not helping you can also try deleting node_modules folder, and running npm i again

babel-preset-env / babel-preset-react packages are deprecated.
use #babel/preset-env and #babel/preset-react packages.
And do the following change in .babelrc :
"presets": ["#babel/env", "#babel/react"]

That is due to outdated babel packages being used. The babel project, just like most other active Javascript projects, have moved on to using scope packages. Hence, the package names starts with #babel

Webpack Error: please install sqlite3 package manually

I have installed sqlite3 globally and localy, tested it on the console and it's working fine. But, my application doesn't even load the screen.

With Electron sqlite3 has to be built with electron-builder.
How to use sqlite3 module with electron?
and https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder
both recommend adding this to your package.json
"postinstall": "electron-builder install-app-deps"
This will rebuild all native binaries everytime you install a new package.

ReactNative: babelHelpers.typeof is not a function

On an existing project, that have worked fine over many months and which is already in the AppStores for both iOS and Android, we've got now a break on development with this error:
babelHelpers.typeof is not a function
All what we've done was to try to upgrade an RN-0.26-based Application to a newer version. But even after a rollback the error remains.
We cleared watchman, resetted the packager multiple times. Nothing helped here.

Can anyone help?

The issue happens because either your project (via a custom .babelrc) or one of your dependencies is relying on a es2015 preset that doesn't work with React Native. The reason for that is because it includes transform-typeof-symbol which calls babelHelpers.typeof that is not bundled with React Native.
If you have a custom babelrc - the solution is simple, just remove this preset.
Afterwards, restart packager w/o cache and you should be set.
Note: It maybe one of your dependencies that uses that preset - in such case, there's nothing you can do but try forking it and removing the preset yourself.

A part solution to this is using babel-preset-react-native-stage-0
https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-preset-react-native-stage-0
There is a PR here to fix this in the react-native codebase: enter link description here
