## What it is
A React Native template/starter kit that lets developers target Android, iOS, Web, Windows (UWP), and Electron desktop platforms from a single codebase. It ships in several variants (re-base, re-dux, re-route, re-start) that come pre-wired with Redux and React Router, installed via the react-native CLI template mechanism.

## Use cases
- scaffold a react native app that also runs on the web
- build one codebase for android, ios, and desktop with electron
- start a react native project with redux and react-router preconfigured
- avoid manually setting up react-native-web in a new project
- create a cross-platform react native boilerplate without cloning repos

## When to choose
- you want a single React Native codebase spanning mobile, web, and desktop
- you want Redux and React Router wired up from the start
- you prefer installing a starter via react-native init --template instead of cloning a boilerplate

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained template compatible with modern React Native versions
- you use Expo or a different navigation/state stack
- you only target iOS and Android and don't need web or desktop
