Please update gnome-builder, current version from Arch repo can't run applications built for host system.

Create C or Python application project, choose "Default" configuration/"Host operating system runtime" in "Build Preferences", try to build it and run it.
Application will be built successfully, but won't run.
Builder will show "Invalid JSON received from meson introspect" message ("Messages" tab in bottom area).

This bug is fixed in latest gnome-builder-3-28 branch (apparently, in commit https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-builder/commit/864e3cb5d4366b99e9a8bdb7055a499b915d6a84 )
This task depends upon

I am still getting the error, gnome-builder 3.23.3

Don't know what exactly was this error about, but I just stumbled into it.
The true error behind that "masked" error message of invalid json was:
"mesonbuild.mesonlib.MesonException: Build directory has been generated with Meson version 0.44.0, which is incompatible with current version 0.48.1.
Please delete this build directory AND create a new one."

So, I just had to delete the old builddir generated by Builder and let it create a new one.
