Unfortunately I’m still super stuck after following dozens of rabbit holes… When I try to run the emulator, I get this:
ReactNativeClient git:master ❯ react-native run-android ✹
info JS server already running.

Following that error, I tried updating the licenses, but then I got his error:

It appears to to be some issue with my Java version, but following several guides like this one hasn’t resolved the issue.
My goal in building the Android app is to support custom fonts with this PR, which is already working for iOS. I don’t want to waste a bunch of your time just trying to help me build this on my machine, so if it’s less of a pain for one of you to resolve it—or if you’re fine with just merging as-is without Android support—that’s fine by me too! I just didn’t want to leave Android users hanging.
