The same on 8.0.0

react-native-pager-view: ^6.2.3
kotlinVersion = "2.1.20"
it's working in 0.80.0

After debugging for hours, I found that Codegen wasn’t working due to this simple flag.
Although newer React Native versions enable the New Architecture by default, some packages still check newArchEnabled during the build.
Adding newArchEnabled=true to android/gradle.properties fixes the issue.

Using
"react-native": "^0.83.0",
"react-native-pager-view": "^8.0.0"
