After upgrading dependencies to #133 ,To solve this issue,

navigate to \node_modules\metro-config\src\defaults\blacklist.js and upgrade

var sharedBlacklist = [ /node_modules[/\\]react[/\\]dist[/\\].*/, /website\/node_modules\/.*/, /heapCapture\/bundle\.js/, /.*\/__tests__\/.*/ ];

To

var sharedBlacklist = [ /node_modules[\/\\]react[\/\\]dist[\/\\].*/, /website\/node_modules\/.*/, /heapCapture\/bundle\.js/, /.*\/__tests__\/.*/ ];
