2. Java Development Kit (JDK): React Native requires the JDK.

   • Download and install from Oracle's official site.

   Note: It's recommended to use Node 16 or newer for Node. Using JDK versions higher than 11 may cause issues.

1. Install Android Studio from the official website.

   • Ensure you've checked "Android SDK" and "Android Virtual Device" during the installation process.

2. Install npm using npm install.
3. Initialize your app with npx react-native@latest init TodoListApp.
