React Native fix android build error "[CXX1428] exception while building Json A problem occurred starting process"

I setup dev environment for my new m1 laptop and faced with weird error when tryied to build React Native 0.72.x New Architecture on Android:

[CXX1428] exception while building Json 
  A problem occurred starting process 
  'command /Users/my/Library/Android/sdk/cmake/3.22.1/bin/cmake'

1. I was managed to fix it removing all cache:
   

   rm -rf android/app/build/ android/app/.cxx/
   ./android/gradlew clean -p android
   

2. and reinstalling some Android SDK components:

2.1 open Android Studio -> open Settings -> then Appearance & Behavior -> System Settings -> Android SDK ->choose SDK Tools -> enable Show Package Details

2.2 And then unmark all CMake, NDK, Command build tools versions:

2.3 then Apply

2.4 finally install again:

• latest Command-line Tools
• 3.22.1 CMake
• 23.1.7779620 NDK

rm -rf android/app/build/ android/app/.cxx/
./android/gradlew clean -p android
