I am getting this error when running the android project in react react native.
This is fresh install of react native version "react": "^16.3.1","react-native": "^0.57.1",
It gives error of optional chaining. Can anyone please help me how to enable optional chaining in react native.
Loading dependency graph, done.

I got it fixed by adding file .babelrc file in root
{
"plugins": [
"@babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining"
],
"presets": [
"react-native"
]
}
restart metro after change .babelrc file
