Hello I am getting an issue when trying to run react-native init.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token ...
/Users/jordan/Projects/React/LiveInstagram/node_modules/metro-bundler/build/lib/TerminalClass.js:141
this._nextStatusStr = util.format(format, ...args);
Does anyone know how I can remedy this issue? Thanks!

perhaps it's the rest operator
...that is not understood – Jaromanda X Commented Jul 6, 2017 at 3:03 - Well that is what the error looks like, but since it is in the metro-bundler I don't know how to fix that. – j5juice Commented Jul 6, 2017 at 11:45
- What's your node version? @j5juice – Chiamaka Nwolisa Commented Jul 6, 2017 at 18:00
- 4.6.0 is my Node version. 5.0.3 is NPM version. 2.0.1 is react-native-cli version. – j5juice Commented Jul 6, 2017 at 22:10

Reset to default 2There are patibility issues in the updated react-native cli. Using the downgraded version solves this problem. $ react-native init [project name] --version 0.38.0
https://github./facebook/react-native/issues/11384
Currently it works for me with node v8. My solution:
sudo npm install -g npm
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable
So I pletely uninstalled Node then reinstalled it and react-native-cli and it worked correctly.
I had the same problem with nodejs v4, solve this by updating nodejs and npm.
sudo purge nodejs npm
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource./setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
I had an older node version. so upgraded to 18.17.1 and worked for react native 0.72.5
