After run pod install react get removed while upgrading react-native version

Question

Can anyone explain why the pod install removing the React. Also it shows the React missing in product-->Edit scheme.

I need any good solution

RCTBrigeModule.h file not found error?

I dont have any idea how to fix this.

Before unlinking the package and not run pod install

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'
pod 'Fabric'
pod 'Crashlytics'

target 'App' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for App

  target 'App-tvOSTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    # Pods for testing
    pod 'rn-fetch-blob', :path => '../node_modules/rn-fetch-blob'

    pod 'BVLinearGradient', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-linear-gradient'

    pod 'RNVectorIcons', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons'
    pod 'RNImageCropPicker', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-image-crop-picker'

    pod 'react-native-camera', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-camera'

    pod 'RNImageRotate', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-image-rotate'

    pod 'RNShare', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-share'

    pod 'RNViewShot', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-view-shot'

    pod 'RNFS', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-fs'

    pod 'BugsnagReactNative', :path => '../node_modules/bugsnag-react-native'

    pod 'RNGestureHandler', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-gesture-handler'

    pod 'react-native-webview', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-webview'

  end

  target 'AppTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    # Pods for testing
  end

end

After linking and run pod install

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'
pod 'Fabric'
pod 'Crashlytics'

target 'App' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for App

  target 'App-tvOSTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    # Pods for testing


  end

  target 'AppTests' do
    inherit! :search_paths
    # Pods for testing
  end

end

If you trying to to upgrade to v0.60+, you have to do this manually with this tool. (https://react-native-community.github.io/upgrade-helper/). There is many breaking changes including pod support and androidX support.

Update all libraries to latest version, remove all manual linked libraries before RN upgrade from Xcode, to avoid Xcode crashes.
