Node, Python2, JDK
Why Python 2? Why JDK 8? These are ancient distributions that are on the brink of no longer being supported.
I am using Python 3.8 and JDK 13 to run my RN app and it works just fine. The only thing I had to do was update my Gradle version (in gradle.properties) to the latest which is JDK 13-aware.
Android development environment
1. Install Android Studio
The setup wizard no longer allows you to select the components to install. This is done in the Android Studio Welcome wizard:
"Once setup has finalized and you're presented with the Welcome screen, proceed to the next step." => should clarify that you need to actually run Android Studio first - yes I know this is a nitpick but a guide should be specific.
Screenshots showing exactly what the screens involved look like would be helpful.
3. Configure the ANDROID_HOME environment variable
Again, screenshots would be helpful.
Variable value should rather be set to %LocalAppData%\Android\Sdk.
4. Add platform-tools to Path
Again, this should rather be %LocalAppData%\Android\Sdk\platform-tools.
