Horrible experience starting a project

Solution: You need to increase the amount of memory that Gradle can use.

Also have you considered using Expo instead?

Changing to distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.5-bin.zip worked. Changing memory settings as suggested did absolutely nothing for me.

Cheers mate, I was about to tear my hair out.

This was actually a more frustrating start than setting up a flutter dev environment on Arch. Impressive.

Gradle memory was not the problem. Which means this was not discussed a number of times, but since it is closed, there is no point in keep discussing.

I am glad i was able to help you @mrkesu
