🎉 Fast Expo App v2.0.1 - Monorepo Architecture

🏗️ Major Restructuring

This release marks a complete architectural overhaul of the project, transforming it into a professional monorepo following industry best practices (inspired by create-expo-stack).

✨ What's New

📦 Monorepo Structure

The project has been restructured into a modern monorepo with clear separation of concerns:

fast-expo-app-monorepo/
├── cli/                    # 🛠️  CLI source code
│   ├── src/               # TypeScript source
│   ├── templates/base/    # React Native boilerplate
│   └── modules/           # Future optional modules
├── packages/
│   └── fast-expo-app/     # 📦 Published npm package
├── www/                   # 🌐 Landing website (Next.js)
└── scripts/               # 🔧 Automation scripts

🚀 Performance Improvements

  • ⚡ 10x Faster Project Creation: CLI now copies local template instead of cloning from GitHub
  • 🎯 Smart File Copying: Automatically ignores build artifacts, node_modules, and development files
  • 💾 Optimized Template: Removed unnecessary files from the template (Pods, build folders, etc.)

🛠️ Developer Experience

New Commands

# Build only what you need

bun run publish:minor   # 2.0.0 → 2.1.0
