Build apk file from React Native Application

The easy way to create your own apk file is to follow the react native docs. There are different commands to build your app as debug or release mode or if you want to publish your app in playstore or any other store then you need to build it differently.
#reactnative #apk #MobileAppDevelopment #react

If you are getting error you can try running cmd as a administrator . It solved my issue.
