## What it is
React Native AI is a full-stack framework for building cross-platform mobile AI apps with React Native and an Express server proxy. It provides streaming LLM chat UIs, multi-provider model support, image generation, and built-in theming.

## Use cases
- build a cross-platform mobile AI chat app
- stream LLM responses in a React Native app
- add image generation to a mobile app
- proxy OpenAI and Anthropic requests through a server with auth
- create a themed mobile chatbot UI
- support multiple LLM providers in one mobile app

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made React Native starter for LLM chat apps
- you need streaming text and chat UIs on iOS and Android from one codebase
- you want a server proxy for API keys and auth
- you need multi-provider LLM and image generation support out of the box

## When to avoid
- you are building a web-only AI app
- you need a highly custom native architecture rather than a starter template
- you do not use React Native or JavaScript/TypeScript
- you need fine-grained control over every screen and networking layer from scratch
