react-native-whats-new is a skill that ships with the open-source library @liorpesoa/react-native-whats-new and wires its what's-new sheet and store-rating prompt into a React Native or Expo app.

Skill · By Lior · Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex · Updated 2026-09-27

## Install

```sh
npx skills add lior-pesoa/react-native-whats-new
```

Source code: https://github.com/lior-pesoa/react-native-whats-new

## What it does

- Detects whether the app uses Expo or bare React Native, its package manager and its root component.
- Reuses the storage, version source and review library the app already has.
- Installs the library and mounts the sheet at the app root, after onboarding and auth screens.

## When to use it

Use it when you want release notes shown on the first launch after an update, optionally followed by the store-rating prompt.

## Questions

### Is the library free?

Yes. @liorpesoa/react-native-whats-new is open source under the MIT license.

### Does it need native code?

No. It's pure JavaScript, so it works in Expo Go with no pod install and no config plugin.
