What this skill does
React Native Architecture Production-ready patterns for React Native development with Expo, including navigation, state management, native modules, and offline-first architecture. When to Use This Skill Starting a new React Native or Expo project Implementing complex navigation patterns Integrating native modules and platform APIs Building offline-first mobile applications Optimizing React Native performance Setting up CI/CD for mobile releases Core Concepts 1. Project Structure 2. Expo vs Bare React Native Feature Expo Bare RN --------- ------ --------- Setup complexity Low High Native modules EAS Build Manual linking OTA updates Built-in Manual setup Build service EAS Custom CI Custom native code Config plugins Direct access Quick Start Patterns Pattern 1: Expo Router Navigation Pattern 2: Authentication Flow Pattern 3: Offline-First with React Query Pattern 4: Native Module Integration Pattern 5: Platform-Specific Code Pattern 6: Performance Optimization EAS Build & Submit Best Practices Do's Use Expo - Faster development, OTA updates, managed native code FlashList over FlatList - Better performance for long lists Memoize components - Prevent unnecessary re-renders Use Reanimated - 60fps animations on native thread Test on real devices - Simulators miss real-world issues Don'ts Don't inline styles - Use StyleSheet.create for performance Don't fetch in render - Use useEffect or React Query Don't ignore platform differences - Test on both iOS and Android Don't store secrets in code - Use environment variables Don't skip error boundaries - Mobile crashes are unforgiving Resources Expo Documentation Expo Router React Native Performance FlashList
