> react-native-architecture

Feature-first project structure and separation of concerns for React Native. Use when structuring a React Native project or applying clean architecture patterns. (triggers: src/**/*.tsx, src/**/*.ts, app.json, feature, module, directory structure, separation of concerns, Expo, React Navigation, StyleSheet.create, react-native, mobile architecture)

React Native Architecture

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Feature-first organization for scalable mobile apps.

Implementation Guidelines

  • Feature-First: Organize by feature/module, not by type.
  • Colocation: Keep related files together (screens, components, hooks within feature).
  • Separation: UI (screens/components) separate from logic (hooks/services).
  • Atomic Components: Reusable components in /components. Feature-specific in feature folder.
  • Absolute Imports: Configure tsconfig.json paths (@/components, @/features).
  • Single Responsibility: Each file has one clear purpose.
  • Expo vs CLI: Structure works for both. Expo uses app.json, CLI uses index.js.

Anti-Patterns

  • No Type-Based Folders: Avoid /containers, /screens at root. Use features.
  • No Logic in Screens: Extract to hooks or services.
  • No Circular Deps: Features should not import from each other directly.
  • No Deep Nesting: Max 3 levels deep.

Navigation Strategy

  • Expo Router: Use for new projects, web-parity, and file-based routing.
  • React Navigation: Use for complex deep-linking, legacy apps, or high-customization needs.

Verification Checklist (Mandatory)

  • Feature-First: Is the file inside a feature directory?
  • Colocation: Are hooks/services colocated with screens?
  • Logic-Free Screens: Is there any business logic in the screen component?
  • Navigation Choice: Does the project use the navigation strategy defined above?
