 Getting Started

- React Native - Official documentation, including environment setup, guides, and API reference.
- Expo - The recommended framework for building React Native apps: file-based routing, native modules, builds, and updates out of the box.
- React Native Directory - Searchable, filterable directory of React Native libraries with maintenance and New Architecture compatibility signals.
- Upgrade Helper - Web tool that shows the exact diff between two React Native versions for painless upgrades.
- rn-diff-purge - The raw version-to-version diffs powering Upgrade Helper.
- Expo Examples - Example projects demonstrating Expo APIs and integrations.

 AI-Assisted Development

Tools for building React Native apps with AI agents, and for putting AI inside your apps.

 Agents & Skills

- Expo AI Agents Guide - Expo's official documentation for AI-native development: agent setup, llms.txt, and best practices.
- Claude Code + Expo - Official guide for building, debugging, and deploying Expo apps with Claude Code.
- Expo Skills - Agent skills that give coding agents Expo-specific knowledge and best practices.
- Agent Skills - Anthropic's public repository of agent skills, usable with Claude Code and other agents.

 MCP Servers

- Expo MCP - Expo-hosted MCP server: EAS logs, documentation search, and deployment workflows from any MCP-capable agent.
- mobile-mcp - MCP server for mobile automation on iOS, Android, emulators, simulators, and real devices.
- ios-simulator-mcp - MCP server for driving the iOS simulator: interact with UI, take screenshots, inspect the view hierarchy.
- Maestro - E2E testing framework with a built-in MCP server, letting agents run flows and control devices.

 On-Device AI

- react-native-executorch - Declarative on-device AI inference powered by ExecuTorch, from Software Mansion.
- llama.rn - React Native binding of llama.cpp for running LLMs on device.
- react-native-fast-tflite
