Overview:

The React Native Universal Monorepo is an opinionated approach to supporting multiple platforms with React Native using a Yarn Workspaces monorepo. It utilizes Yarn Workspaces and TypeScript to create a modular React Native project, isolating the JavaScript app code from the platform configurations. This allows for the support of various platforms such as Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Android TV, tvOS, Web, Web Browser Extensions, Electron, and Next.js. The approach promotes gradual React Native updates and allows for different versions of React Native to be used on each platform.
