Cross-Platform native modules documentation for v0.79.0 creates an app using v0.76.0 of React Native which does not work

[Zach-Dean-Attractions-io]

Description

In version 0.79.0 of Cross-Platform Native Modules (C++) the documentation tells you to create a React Native app running version 0.76.0

npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init SampleApp --version 0.76.0

However, this results in an app that fails to build (at least on iOS). In the iOS set up we have to create NativeSampleModuleProvider as below

NativeSampleModuleProvider.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <ReactCommon/RCTTurboModule.h>

NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_BEGIN

@interface NativeSampleModuleProvider : NSObject <RCTModuleProvider>

@end

NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_END

However, RCTModuleProvider does not exist in ReactCommon/RCTTurboModule.h in version 0.76.0 of React Native and so the app fails to build.

Documentation version

0.79.0

Yup that's a bug in the docs. It should obviously be 0.79
Could you send a PR to fix this @Zach-Dean-Attractions-io ?

Thanks for the report! This has been addressed by:

• Update the version of React Native used in the create application script to 0.79.0 from 0.76.0 #4578
• update template version in native modules guide #4698

Closing as done.
