Hi HN, I built ShipNative to make “clone, configure, ship” realistic for Expo/React Native projects.

The focus is on a clean TypeScript base, sensible defaults, and docs that don’t assume you already know the exact setup steps. It aims to cover the common production essentials (auth, payments, analytics/error wiring points) without turning into an over-opinionated framework.

I’d love feedback on:

What you expect a real-world RN starter to include (or avoid)

Where most boilerplates feel bloated or fragile

Whether the docs are clear enough for a first-time setup

Happy to answer technical questions and explain trade-offs.
