codemod-RN24-to-RN25
A codemod to migrate React Native imports from the old 'react-native' style to the new 'react' and 'react-native' split required in RN25.
What is codemod-RN24-to-RN25?
codemod-RN24-to-RN25 is a codemod (code modification script) that automates the migration of import statements in React Native projects from version 24 to version 25. It specifically addresses the breaking change in RN25 where React core exports like `React`, `Component`, and `PropTypes` must be imported from the 'react' package instead of 'react-native'. This tool saves developers hours of manual file editing by programmatically updating imports across an entire codebase.
React Native developers or teams upgrading their projects from React Native 24 to 25, especially those with large codebases where manual import updates would be error-prone and time-consuming.
Developers choose this codemod because it provides a reliable, automated solution for a mandatory but tedious upgrade task, reducing human error and saving significant development time compared to manual refactoring. It integrates seamlessly with the standard jscodeshift workflow.
