📱 A template for your next React Native project 🚀, Made with developer experience and performance first: Expo, TypeScript, NativeWind, Husky, Lint-Staged, expo-router, react-query, react-hook-form, I18n and preconfigured for EAS.

This repository is a fork of Obytes Starter, which provides a solid foundation. We periodically sync with the original repo to stay up-to-date with their improvements, while making our own adjustments and optimizations to streamline our setup process.

Overview

As a team of experienced developers at Rootstrap, we have spent years building high-quality React Native applications. Our initial starter kit was designed for React Native CLI apps. However, with the strong recommendation to work with Expo since React Native 0.75, we recognized the need to adapt quickly and leverage the best tools available.

To maintain our commitment to delivering top-quality products efficiently, we chose to explore and research existing templates maintained by a larger community.

Our objective with this template is to streamline the development process, enabling us to build high-quality apps more efficiently and with less overhead.

This template brings several key advantages. It provides our team with a consistent codebase and standards, making it easier to move between projects without a steep learning curve. This consistency allows us to focus more on the core functionality of each project instead of getting stuck on repetitive setup tasks. Furthermore, by promoting uniformity across our work, it simplifies maintenance, scaling, and collaboration across different teams.
