SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams restructure large React Native projects written in TypeScript, improving maintainability, performance, and alignment with modern RN architecture.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Refactor toward React Native New Architecture (Fabric, TurboModules, JSI) and Expo SDK 52+ patterns.
  • Improve code quality via SRP, DRY, and modularization; extract reusable hooks and components; optimize navigation and animations.
  • Use Case: A monolithic RN app with fragile navigation and inline styles is progressively split into small, testable modules with type-safe navigation and improved performance.

Quick Start

Refactor the codebase to adopt Fabric, TurboModules, and JSI while preserving behavior; create reusable hooks for API calls; extract heavy UI logic into memoized components; separate platform-specific code.

FAQPage Schema
How do I refactor a React Native app to use the New Architecture with Fabric and TurboModules?

Refactoring a React Native app to adopt the New Architecture involves migrating to Fabric, TurboModules, and JSI to improve rendering and native module communication performance. This process enforces Expo SDK 52+ patterns while preserving existing app behavior during the transition.

What is the best way to structure a large TypeScript React Native project for maintainability?

Structuring a large TypeScript React Native project requires applying SRP and DRY principles to enforce separation of concerns. This refactoring approach extracts reusable hooks and memoized components, progressively splitting monolithic apps into modular, testable units with type-safe navigation.

How do I improve performance in a monolithic React Native app with fragile navigation?

Improving performance in a monolithic React Native app involves extracting heavy UI logic into memoized components and creating reusable hooks for API calls. This refactoring process optimizes navigation and animations while enforcing type-safe navigation patterns.

Can I use this refactoring approach with an Expo SDK 52+ cross-platform mobile app?

Yes, this refactoring approach is designed for cross-platform mobile apps using Expo SDK 52+. It enforces Expo SDK 52+ usage alongside React Native New Architecture adoption, ensuring your TypeScript project aligns with modern development patterns.

How do I separate platform-specific code when refactoring a React Native TypeScript codebase?

Separating platform-specific code during a React Native refactor involves modular component extraction and applying strict separation of concerns. This process isolates platform-dependent logic while maintaining type-safe navigation and shared reusable hooks across the cross-platform mobile app.

When do I need to adopt JSI and TurboModules in my React Native TypeScript project?

You need to adopt JSI and TurboModules when your React Native TypeScript project requires high-performance native communication and modern rendering. This refactoring targets apps needing better separation of concerns, scalable navigation, and alignment with the React Native New Architecture.
