I'm trying to setup tailwindcss-react-native package into my react native project. After successful installation when I add classnames to a component it gives me an error. I've tried uninstalling and then re-installing it, removing the npm cache and node_modules folder but I can't figure out what is wrong. I'm attaching the error log and also codes of my project. Please point out what I'm missing here. Thank you
My babel.config.js file:
module.exports = function(api) {
api.cache(true);
return {
presets: ['babel-preset-expo'],
plugins: ["tailwindcss-react-native/babel"],
};
};
My tailwind.config.js file:
module.exports = {
content: [
"./screens/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
"./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
"./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
],
theme: {
extend: {},
},
plugins: [],
}
My App.js file:
import { TailwindProvider } from 'tailwindcss-react-native';
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
import { createNativeStackNavigator } from '@react-navigation/native-stack';
import HomeScreen from './screens/HomeScreen';
const Stack = createNativeStackNavigator();
export default function App() {
return (
<NavigationContainer>
<TailwindProvider>
<Stack.Navigator>
<Stack.Screen name="Home" component={HomeScreen} />
</Stack.Navigator>
</TailwindProvider>
</NavigationContainer>
);
}
My HomeScreen.js screen:
import { View, Text } from 'react-native'
import React from 'react'
export default function HomeScreen() {
return (
<View>
<Text className="text-red-500">HomeScreen</Text>
</View>
)
}

The problem is your node version... All you need to do is update your node for the latest version, delete package.json node_modules folder, and npm install
