@nx/react-native:application

Create a React Application for Nx.

Usage

1nx generate application ... 2
1nx g app ... #same 2

By default, Nx will search for application in the default collection provisioned in workspace.json.

You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:

1nx g @nx/react-native:application ... 2

Show what will be generated without writing to disk:

1nx g application ... --dry-run 2

Examples

Generate apps/nested/myapp:

1nx g @nx/react-native:app myapp --directory=nested 2

Use class components instead of functional components:

1nx g @nx/react-native:app myapp --classComponent 2
