error: bundling failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'transformFile' of undefined, React Native

I receive this error whenever I run react-native start, but this started happening recently after I had installed firebase-tools and stripe in my node modules, but before that it would run just fine, also here's the error's stacktrace:

::ffff:127.0.0.1 - - [22/Mar/2020:19:59:30 +0000] "GET /index.bundle?platform=android&dev=true&minify=false HTTP/1.1" 500 - "-" "okhttp/3.12.1"

  },
  "jest": {
    "preset": "react-native"
  }
}

I am also well aware of another question that has the same problem on StackOverflow, but that question's solution didn't work for me, because npm ignored it when i ran react-native start since those modules were deprecated, and I still got the same error

Downgrading NodeJS to LTS version always helps. I faced same issue when I was trying on the NodeJS^17 but when I downgraded it to NodeJS^14 and reinstalled node_modules everything was fixed.

I have the same problem with Nodejs version 17.1.0. Just uninstalled it and reinstall Nodejs version 16.13.0.
