   - Build processes are costly and complex, so caching is used a lot. As a result, certain changes that you make in your app can cause cache conflicts in subsequent builds. Deal with this via `npx react-native-clean-project`. This does solve a lot of problems.
   - Try and isolate the problem with a template React Native Firebase app. This [bash script](https://github.com/mikehardy/rnfbdemo/blob/main/make-demo.sh) is particularly helpful in making an empty template app.

-- Using [Fastlane for iOS deployment](https://docs.fastlane.tools/getting-started/ios/setup/) together with [RN Firebase Crashlytics](https://rnfirebase.io/crashlytics/usage) within CI has been observed to cause builds that hang indefinitely.

 - Be careful if you are using a VPN, Google blocks many VPN IPs causing "unavailable" errors for various firebase API calls, and on an Android emulator it might completely mess up the network adapter causing network calls to never return, not only on firebase but on the entire emulated phone.
