Metro bundler is the JavaScript bundler currently used by React Native. One of metro's most famous limitations (and issue number #1 in its GitHub repository) is its inability to follow symlinks. Therefore, since all hoisted libraries (basically all libraries not specified in the nohoist list) are installed in mobile/node_modules as symlinks from /node_modules, metro won't be able to detect them. Additionally, because of this issue, metro won't even be able to resolve other workspaces (e.g., @my-app/app) since they're outside of the mobile directory.
To do so, install react-native-monorepo-tools, a set of utilities for making metro compatible with Yarn workspaces based on our nohoist list.
