NDK should be installed. This can be done with SDK manager.

Project should contain ``./android/local.properties` with correct paths to SDK/NDK (it is possible to set up environment variables).

Windows example:
`
sdk.dir=D\:\\Development\\_SDK\\AndroidSDK\\AndroidSDK
ndk.dir=D\:\\Development\\_SDK\\AndroidSDK\\ndk-bundle
`

_There will be the warnings during the native libraries build phase._

#### Android

- Add import com.kornell.bpg.RNReactNativeBpgPackage; to the imports at the top of the file
- Add new RNReactNativeBpgPackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method
2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:
`
include ':react-native-bpg'
project(':react-native-bpg').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-bpg/android')
`
3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:

ToDo list

> add methods for `*AsPromise`

> rename current methods to `*AsCallback`

Troubleshooting

If native libs are not building, try several techniques to clean cache:

npm start -- --reset-cache

remove node_modules and install dependencies again with npm i

On Windows
remove `%USER_HOME%.gradle\caches\`

On Mac or Linux: `> rm -rf $HOME/.gradle/caches/`

On Both

`> cd android`

`> gradlew cleanBuildCache``

then rebuild an application.
