NSInvalidArgumentException in React Native

Question

I'm using React Native 0.60.5, with Xcode 10.1, and node 8.11.3

I'm running into the following error every time I run my app in Release mode, but it works fine in dev mode.

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** -[NSURL URLByAppendingPathComponent:]: component, components, or pathExtension cannot be nil.'
