create-t3-turbo issues

Hi guys, I just started diving into the create-t3-turbo monorepo. Unfortunately I'm facing some quite annoying issues setting up and running the base template.

I'm following the readme and can get both apps to run with some tricks - however I was expecting it to work out of the box - and I'm not sure if it is my setup there is something wrong with.

Setup:
Apple M1 Pro
macOS: Sonoma 14.2.1
package manager: pnpm (tried installing this several different ways)
  • tried every package manager and I'm facing the same issues for every one of them
Issues I'm facing (I will post more info below):

  1. permission denied, open
    • for certain files in the expo directory. Happens for the auto generated .gitignore file (can't even open it manually) - running with sudo works. Tried various recommendations online (like chmod, deleting and reinstalling the package managers etc)
      2. hot reloading for the Nextjs app is quite slow (600ms - 1s to recompile), longer to appear in the browser - is this to be expected? (am I just being a brat? πŸ™‚ )
  2. hot reloading not working in expo at all (not sure if this is can be related to issue 1)
I know it can be difficult to remotely debug stuff like this, I'm at a point where I would love to give away a bounty if someone can help me out (hopefully this doesn't break any TOS πŸ˜… )

Sorry in advance for this noob question
