Unable to access @example-app/shared in RN CLI

[Vikraantnegi]

error: Error: Unable to resolve module @example-app/shared from /home/fa80mlhr3/Git/react-native-monorepo-main/packages/mobile/App.tsx: @example-app/shared could not be found within the project or in these directories:
node_modules
../../node_modules

Looks like there is something missing the metro configuration file.

  watchFolders: [
    path.resolve(__dirname, '../../node_modules'),
    path.resolve(__dirname, '../../node_modules/@example-app/shared'),
    path.resolve(__dirname, '../shared'),
  ],

Apparently, you have to watch the symlink @example-app/shared along with the target folder itself: ../shared
