React navigation in react-native v0.60 is broken

Question

After following https://reactnavigation.org/docs/en/getting-started.html

(not using expo)

I followed the guide and disabled auto-linking by creating react-native.config.js file

But when I run react-native run-android

 error: package com.swmansion.gesturehandler.react does not exist

 error: cannot find symbol
         return new RNGestureHandlerEnabledRootView(MainActivity.this);

After this error tried adding below line in

**project/android/app/build.gradle**

 implementation project(':react-native-gesture-handler')

And cleaned gradle build and react-native run-android reset-cache

But now it says following error

error: package androidx.core.util does not exist
import androidx.core.util.Pools;

Upgrade android v4 support library to androidx

Because react-navigation-handler does not use androidX where as react-native v0.60 is completely migrated to AndroidX which says breaking change.

React navigation is dead for now...

If anyone can make this work please provide me the GitHub repo by uploading the working code with createStackNavigator

Required

React-native 0.60 latest React-navigation v3

Note: createStackNavigator uses platform conventions by default
