What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a systematic, repeatable approach to diagnosing and fixing React Native issues that block mobile app development across iOS and Android.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Four-Phase Debugging Workflow: Information gathering, error classification, targeted resolution strategies, and verification.
  • Platform Coverage: Applies to iOS and Android build errors, red screen crashes, Metro bundler failures, native module linking, and Hermes bytecode issues.
  • Tooling Guidance: Recommends commands and checks (RN doctor, RN info, starting Metro, running builds) to quickly isolate root causes.
  • Use Case: Imagine a failing RN app with a red screen and a Metro port conflict; follow the workflow to identify whether the issue is a mislinked native module or a cache problem, then apply the recommended fixes and re-test on both platforms.

Quick Start

Run the RN debugging workflow:

  • Check environment health with npx react-native doctor
  • Gather version and environment details with npx react-native info
  • Verify bundler and cache with lsof -i :8081 and npx react-native start --reset-cache
  • Build and run on iOS and Android with npx react-native run-ios and npx react-native run-android
