rnx-kit - React Native tooling by and for developers
rnx-kit is a collection of battle-tested tools created by Microsoft engineers to optimize the React Native developer experience. It helps fill gaps in the React Native ecosystem and streamlines the developer workflow.
These tools are actively used every day to ship React Native apps at scale across Microsoft; now they're open source and available for any React Native project.
What's included
rnx-kit includes tools for:
- Dependency management - Ensure consistent dependency versions across large
projects with align-deps.
- Native builds (experimental) - Build Android and iOS apps in the cloud with
build. Avoid installing heavy native toolchains.
- Better bundling - metro-serializer allows the enhancement of Metro to add
features such as TypeScript validation with Metro, tree shaking, duplicate and cyclic dependencies detection.
- Microsoft-tailored defaults - you can find Babel preset for Metro opinionated
for Microsoft usage.
And many more!
