The problem is that the latest version of react-native-geocoder was released 6 years ago and line 19 (that it’s complaining about in the error message) and also line 20 in the build.gradle are using “compile”, which is no longer supported. These days you should use “implementation”.

I think something like this should get around that particular error:

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"
}

You could try it out by using patch-package to change the react-native-geocoder build.gradle file under your node_modules directory. But given that it hasn’t been updated in so long there might be other problems getting it to work in a current version of React Native (and therefore Expo).

e.g. it was released before React Native autolinking existed, so I’m not sure if that will work.
