1. edit the file android/app/build.gradle and under the dependencies block, add this line:
   implementation project(':react-native-gesture-handler')

2. I know this issue is closed, but I’ve stumbled upon the same error when I try to run my app on Android. I have all the latest versions to date and used the getting started guide correctly. But in the end, this fixed it for me:

   open app/android/app/src/main/java/com/YOUR_APP_NAME/MainApplication.java:

   change this import:
   import com.swmansion.gesturehandler.RNGestureHandlerPackage;

   to this:
   import com.swmansion.gesturehandler.react.RNGestureHandlerPackage

   Hope it might help others 👍

3. People still struggling with it can try below command

   react-native link react-native-gesture-handler
   and then

   react-native run-android

   did work with me.!

4. To install react native cli

   npm install -g react-native-cli

   Happy coding
