So I have been having some problems with launching the initial react-native template project on android. And after consulting someone I was told that jdk 17 is not supported. But I really don’t want to downgrade as this could break other things that I already have and work with. To be specific this is the error I get:
> Task :app:processDebugMainManifest FAILED

I have looked at this already and nothing worked.
