repack VS react-native

Re.Pack is a bundler replacement for React Native's Metro bundler. It is a series of plugins for the popular Webpack bundler that enables some key features of "plain" React designed for code-splitting and lazy loading. WARNING: Using Re.Pack, although pretty straightforward, is a bigger change than the above. So experiment with above recommendations first.

We use our own Re.Pack, which is built around webpack and leverage Module Federation to support this kind of architecture optimally, allowing for collaborative and/or independent development and deployment. Repack doesn’t currently support Expo for development, but it should be possible to have it work in standalone mode for any mini-app. We could consider building this with you.

Maintaining a React Native app built in 2017. Biggest pain right now is using the Metro bundler. Since migrating our codebase from a Yarn v1 workspace to a Rush (pnpm-based) monorepo, our packages use symlinks which the Metro bundler doesn't support. I've had to go through solutions such as Microsoft's @rnx-kit/metro-resolver-symlinks but still end up with issues. Will look next in to trying Callstack's repack for building our apps instead of Metro, even though I'm very hesitant in switching build tools.

Re.pack is basically a toolkit that allows you to use Webpack and its Code-Splitting functionality and use them on React Native.

Recently, there has been a notable shift in mobile application development practices. Rather than creating separate applications for each native platform, many developers are opting for hybrid mobile frameworks like React Native.

Versatility: JavaScript is not limited to web browsers. It's used in a variety of environments, including mobile app development (using frameworks like React Native), game development (using libraries like Phaser), and even serverless computing (using platforms like AWS Lambda).

In the competitive landscape of mobile app development, user experience (UX) has emerged as a critical differentiator. React Native, with its robust framework and versatile capabilities, offers developers a powerful toolkit to create seamless and engaging user experiences. This blog post delves into the design principles and best practices in React Native app development, uncovering how developers can elevate user experience to new heights and drive success in the digital realm.

You can find the React Native documentation here and Flutter Documentation here.

Additionally, React Native, an extension of React.js, enables developers to create hybrid mobile applications with ease.

You don’t know what to do with your time while applying the 5th rule? Start small, tiny steps. If you can’t read much, start small, 15 minutes a day reading a technical article or even a book like Effective Java, by Joshua Bloch. You don’t like to read? Create small projects by using a framework you want to learn. Check for example: React framework.
