RNPM is a React Native package manager that automates installing and linking native dependencies into iOS and Android projects. It was merged into React Native core in 2016, and this repository is now sealed and read-only.

Use cases

  • link native modules in a react native project
  • install and link react native dependencies automatically
  • manage native dependencies without editing xcode project files
  • automate adding ios and android native libraries
  • simplify react native dependency management

When to choose

  • you are on a very old React Native version that predates built-in react-native link
  • you need to reference the original tooling that became part of React Native core

When to avoid

  • you use any modern React Native version, where linking is built into the react-native CLI
  • you want an actively maintained tool
  • you need support or bug fixes, since the repo is read-only
