Reviving a Codebase: Our 3-Week React Native Rescue Mission
summary
A failing React Native app gets a full rewrite completed in three weeks with concrete results: rolled a new repo and replaced tangled navigation and state logic with clear flows and tests, removed secrets checked into the repository, and switched to Expo with EAS build automation so releases happen with a click. Measured wins include drastically shorter cycle times, reproducible builds, fewer regressions, and a codebase small teams can own and iterate on quickly.
