if you are using Expo, you have to specify the entrypoint in your app.json
file like this:
{
"expo": {
"entryPoint": "./src/app/index.js"
}
}
then, inside that file you need to register the app with Expo.registerRootComponent(YOUR_MAIN_APP_COMPONENT)
import Expo from 'expo'
...
class App extends Component {
...
}
export default Expo.registerRootComponent(App);
this way you can add your entry file wherever you want.
