Research direction
Start with the Demo App setup instructions at the linked getting-started page and reproduce the npm start failure on Android. Inspect the Demo App dependency configuration and the installed node_modules\watchman\package.json referenced in the report. Done means following the documented steps no longer fails because of the watchman dependency.
