react-native-firebase install - package io.invertase.firebase does not exist?

running react-native link did not work for me. I had to delete the android and ios project folders and then ran

react-native eject

which recreated both the ios and android folders. I was able to run the builds now.

It appears that RNFirebasePackage is missing and cannot be found during compile step.

Try running

react-native link

after install, followed by clean and then run the build.
