can't build android APK due to SDK_INT and VERSION_CODES.P - what is that?

It's been two sad days trying to release my React Native app for Android, but getting this error:

My project/android/build.gradle file is:

}

Also, my Android Studio has the following components downloaded:

I tried several times cleaning gradle cache, but no success. I'm a newbie on java and have no idea on how to deal with this.

Any idea?

After changing compiledSdkVersion to 28, now I'm getting the following errors:

Your compileSdkVersion is 27, but Android P is API 28. You need to set your compileSdkVersion to 28 if you'd like to use Android P specific APIs, such as the Build.VERSION_CODES.P constant, which was only introduced in Android P.

As per this blog post, you should always seek to compile with the latest SDK (whether you use any features of that API level or not).

Prior to the Migration to AndroidX, Lint does complain if you use a Support Library version that does not match your compileSdkVersion. You can either ignore it, or upgrade to 28.0.0, which was the last release prior to moving to AndroidX.
