## What it is
An interactive CLI tool that scaffolds highly configurable React Native apps built on Expo. It generates projects with options for TypeScript, Expo Router or React Navigation, styling libraries like NativeWind and Tamagui, and backend services such as Firebase and Supabase.

## Use cases
- scaffold a new expo react native app
- create a react native project with expo router and nativewind
- bootstrap an expo app with supabase auth preconfigured
- generate a typescript expo template with tab navigation
- quickly start a react native app with my preferred package manager
- set up an expo project with tailwind styling
- create an expo starter with firebase authentication

## When to choose
- starting a new React Native/Expo project and wanting a tailored, typesafe setup
- you want prewired navigation, styling, and backend choices without manual configuration
- you prefer non-interactive scaffolding via flags for repeatable project setups

## When to avoid
- you need a bare React Native project without Expo
- you have an existing app and only want to add libraries rather than scaffold a new one
- you need a fully custom project structure the CLI templates don't support
