[DOCS] Getting started guide on installing react-native-vector-icons is outdated #3257

Closed

Description

@angeloanan

In the Getting Started section of the docs, it is instructed to run react-native link react-native-vector-icons to link the vector icons with the app. React Native has removed the script react-native link from their CLI in their newest release (react-native-community/cli#1537).

As far as I understand, react-native-vector-icons have already updated their instruction on linking vector icons to the app (https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons#android). The docs should be updated to reflect them.

P.S, I'm a beginner to RN, please let me know if this is incorrect.

    Couldn't find version numbers for the following packages in the issue:

    • react-native
    • react-native-paper
    • react-native-vector-icons

    Can you update the issue to include version numbers for those packages? The version numbers must match the format 1.2.3.

    Hey! Thanks for opening the issue. The issue doesn't seem to contain a link to a repro (a snack.expo.dev link or link to a GitHub repo under your username).

    Can you provide a minimal repro which demonstrates the issue? A repro will help us debug the issue faster. Please try to keep the repro as small as possible and make sure that we can run it without additional setup.
