rnx-kit is a collection of React Native developer tools maintained by Microsoft, including an all-in-one CLI, dependency alignment (align-deps), enhanced Metro bundling, and cloud native builds. It fills gaps in the React Native ecosystem and streamlines workflows for projects of any size.

Use cases

• align dependency versions across a large react native monorepo
• add tree shaking and duplicate dependency detection to metro bundling
• build android and ios apps in the cloud without native toolchains
• set up a react native cli toolchain for my project
• detect cyclic dependencies in my react native app
• manage react native dependencies in typescript projects

When to choose

• you maintain a large or monorepo react native codebase needing consistent dependency versions
• you want enhanced metro bundling with validation and tree shaking
• you want to avoid installing heavy native build toolchains
• you want battle-tested tooling used at Microsoft scale

When to avoid

• you have a small react native app with simple tooling needs
• you don't use react native at all
• you need fully stable cloud native builds, which are still experimental
