Remove node_modules and then running npm install destroy my Expo project

Expo Development Tools
1

Hello everyone,

My expo app was working fine on both web and ios. Then, I wanted to deploy it but had the following issue “React-native is not installed”. In order to fix it, I tried to follow advices and do the following:

  1. remove node_modules
  2. npm install
  3. expo start

However, now, my app is still working on the WEB, but on IOS, I have the following error in one of the first pages of the App:

It looks like on IOS, “em” values in Style are not understood anymore.

Below is my package.json, used when I run npm install:

  "scripts": {
    "start": "expo start",
