We actually got it to work after some headache, solved some of the issues and updated the sdk to expo 44.
Is it possible for us to create a PR for your gitrepo and contribute when we find issues that we can manage and help you guys to solve?
i'm also facing the same issue. Had to update expo sdk from 39 to latest and alot of utdated packages and errors is raised when tryin to launch the app. would like some help on how to proceed and if there are any plans to support the react-native app?
