For two hours, Y could not get the expo.Constants.manifest
key to work on
their machine. We tried everything. Ultimately this was due to me putting an
env.sample.js
file in the repo that was out of data while having the latest
env.sample.js
file on my machine (thus making it impossible for me to reproduce
their errors).
I only realized the discrepancy when inspecting their .env.js
file once we
finally shared screens. By seeing the code on their screen - all the context
both of us would otherwise have ignored - the error jumped out.
