Thereafter, move the terminal inside the 'ios' folder inside the React Native project we just generated, and run: Let us now create our React Native project according to the official React Native documentation. Let us now install Cocoapods using the new Rosetta terminal. We will from now on only use this Rosetta terminal in this tutorial.

For easy access drag the new Rosetta terminal to your task bar. Inside this window check the box called 'Open using Rosetta', you may then close this window. Right click this terminal and press 'getInfo' which will open a separate window. Since we are creating a Rosetta terminal why not call it 'RosettaTerminal'. Name the new terminal something memorable. Right click the terminal application and duplicate it. To create a Rosetta terminal, right click the terminal icon, press 'Options' and then 'show in finder'. To install CocoaPods we first need to setup a Rosetta Terminal. It is now presumed that you have followed the official React Native documentation up until before installing CocoaPods. If your are struggling with installing the prerequisites I strongly recommend following the official React Native documentation up until before installing CocoaPods before comming back to this tutorial to finish up the installation. The following is needed to be able to follow this guide: This section will therefore only describe how to setup a Rosetta terminal, as well as how to install CocoaPods using the Rosetta terminal.

The process of setting up React Native together with Xcode on the Apple Mac M1 should not be a problem as long as you are using a Rosetta terminal while installing CocoaPods while following the official documentation on how to set up the development environment for React Native CLI.
