The command "react-native log-android" is used in React Native to show the Android device log in the terminal.
When developing a React Native app for Android, it can be helpful to see the device log for debugging purposes. The device log contains messages and information about the runtime behavior of the app, including any errors or warnings.
Running the "react-native log-android" command opens a terminal window where the Android device log is displayed in real-time. This allows developers to monitor and analyze the log messages as the app is running or when specific actions or events occur.
By observing the Android device log, developers can better understand the flow of their React Native app, identify and fix issues, and gain insights into how the app is performing on the device.
