Hi @vasiabikeru
Looks like an environment issue with node. Can you please try:

• trying to 'npm install', getting node-gyp rebuild errors nodejs/node-gyp#809 (comment)
• And/or install a fresh version of React Native - does that work?

[vasiabikeru]

Thank you for your reply @mcnamee. I tried both steps and sadly nothing worked.
The error I get seems to be related to fsevents.

I installed fsevents individually and the current version is :
`react-native-starter-kit username$ npm add fsevents
npm notice created a lockfile as package-lock.json. You should commit this file.

Gotcha. Given you've tried installing a fresh version of React Native and React Native isn't work, I'd recommend opening an issue on React Native or fsevents.
