Answer 2

i face this problem and fixed it in this way:

According to document we must install all dependencies like :

 react-native-gesture-handler, react-native-reanimated, react-native-screens and react-native-safe-area-context

Answer 3

I was having similar issue. What I found to fixed the issue for me was.

1. Run code in terminal

   npm i react-navigation-stack

2. Run the below code by opening terminal in your project directory

   npm install react-navigation-stack @react-native-community/masked-view react-native-safe-area-context

3. Lastly running expo clearing the cache(Did this for good measure).

   expo start -c

   Ref: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-navigation-stack

Answer 4

I face same problem now.

How to fix

When I look the node modules folder I can't see the react-navigation module.

Then I re-install the module with # npm install --save react-navigation

After restart the bundler with npm start it worked.

Answer 5

Try this Working for me

npm install @react-navigation/native @react-navigation/stack

Import like this

import {NavigationContainer} from '@react-navigation/native';
import {createStackNavigator} from '@react-navigation/stack';

OR

Please make sure you are not getting any error in your terminal like this

Error: Unable to resolve module `**modules_name**` from `node_modules\

that can be the cause of that.

if you are getting please follow the command

 npm install modules_name

for every module

Thanks
