I have initiated successfully a new react-native project. Then, every time I try to run my newly built project using the command react-native run-android, it gets stucks on info Starting JS server....

Here is the output:

$ react-native run-android
info Running jetifier to migrate libraries to AndroidX".
 You can disable it using "--no-jetifier" flag.
Jetifier found 855 file(s) to forward-jetify. Using 4 workers...
info Starting JS server..."

I tried restarting the laptop and switching emulators. I don't know what else to do anymore.

How do I solve the problem?
