We're closing out August with two speakers looking at React Native from a couple different angles. We'll hear about best practices when creating shared components and learn how to create a React Native CLI plugin to help automate repetitive or complicated tasks.

🎤 Creating Plugins for the React Native CLI 🎤

Do you have advanced app configuration needs? Do you want to initialize permissions? Change the gradle ? Update your project to allow Kotlin code? Do you want to do this repeatably, with access to your environment variables and without requiring opening Xcode or Studio?

React Native has a powerful command line interface you can extend via its plugin system to orchestrate the initialization, configuration, and management of your apps. We will discuss extending the CLI in two ways: hooking "react-native link" for accelerated changes to native code as well as extending the react-native command palette.

Attendees will take away the knowledge - and hopefully inspiration - to start extending the React Native CLI to automate and streamline configuration of their apps without ever opening a GUI.
