react-native-app-starter

This project is a React Native boilerplate that can be used to kickstart a mobile application.

The boilerplate provides an optimized architecture for building solid cross-platform mobile applications through separation of concerns between the UI and business logic. It contains redux, saga, context, theme, localization, tabs and stack navigation.

Getting Started

Creates a new React Native project with TypeScript template:

# Using npx with default package manager (bun)
$ npx react-native-app-starter <ProjectName>

# Using bunx with default package manager (bun)
$ bunx react-native-app-starter <ProjectName>

# Specifying a different package manager
$ npx react-native-app-starter <ProjectName> --pm yarn
$ npx react-native-app-starter <ProjectName> --pm npm

$ cd <ProjectName>

$ npx react-native run-ios

$ npx react-native run-android

Package Manager Options

The CLI supports three package managers:

• bun (default) - Automatically installed if not present
• yarn - Prompts for installation if not present
• npm - Should be available with Node.js installation
