react-native-scripts-native

This is another fork of create-react-native-app

Create React Native applications with native toolchain using create-react-native-app scripts.

The differences are:

• No Expo usage. The script creates application with the native toolchain
• Creates TypeScript application
• Adds support for Windows apps (UWP)

$ npm install -g react-native-cli
$ npx create-react-native-app my-app --scripts-version=react-native-scripts-native

Why this script exists

create-react-native-app is great but it works entirely on Expo toolchain. If you need TypeScript + Windows + Native modules then this scris can be useful for you. Read more at https://docs.expo.io/versions/v27.0.0/introduction/why-not-expo

Developing Windows app (UWP, Visual Studio)

1. Open solution in Visual Studio, select appropriate build configuration and launch
2. Launch the following in console:

react-native start
