Create React Native Library
Overview
Use this skill to scaffold a standalone React Native library or a local library inside an existing app, then continue with the correct implementation docs.
Examples:
- JS-only library that may use other React Native libraries
- Native modules that expose native functionality to JavaScript
- Native UI components that render native views in React Native
Choose one flow first:
- Use scaffold-library.md when creating a new library that may be published to npm
- Use local-library.md when exposing native functionality in a React Native app
When to Apply
Use this skill when:
- Creating or working on a React Native library with
create-react-native-library - Creating a native module or view in an existing app
- Wrapping native SDKs and exposing them to React Native
