Summary

React Native, developed by Facebook, is a framework for building Android and iOS apps using React, but starting a project from scratch can be tedious. This article reviews popular React Native boilerplates that simplify the process, such as Ignite by Infinite Red, which is TypeScript-ready and uses MobX for state management; React Native Starter Kit by mcnamee, which uses Redux and NativeBase for UI design; and React Native Boilerplate by TheCodingMachine, known for its separation of concerns and Redux for state management. Other notable mentions include React Native Template TypeScript by the React Native Community, which offers a minimal setup without additional libraries, and ReactNativeSeed by GeekyAnts, which allows customization of features. Each boilerplate is evaluated based on UI design, navigation type, and testing abilities, and while not ranked, their GitHub stars indicate popularity. The article emphasizes that these boilerplates can significantly streamline app development, enhancing efficiency and ease for developers.
