🤓 React Web and React Native App + Typescript

React and React Native app + Typescript

React and React Native app provide magic platform-splitting functionality based on special file extensions. Just the component for the target platform is compiled at build time.

Follow these practice:

• Put the component in a folder
• Break out the shared interface into a separate .d.ts file.
• Name the web/default file index.tsx (not index.web.tsx)
• Name the native file index.native.tsx (both ios and android)
• For android splitting, add index.android.tsx which will override .native

The .d.ts file enables VS Code code hinting for JSX props, and helps manage the project cross-platform by ensuring the consumers of the component have a unified interface.

Caution:

Beware auto-imports! It's easy to accidentally import a file like this:

import Header from './Header/index.android';

instead of the correct generic way:

import Header from './Header';

Also, when working on the native app, be mindful that VS Code's Go To Definition will always jump to the index.tsx (web) file.
