OR you could just install react native CLI tools, then use the BUILT IN hot module reloading (which is basically like LiveReload for web editing), and just do it yourself without this bloated piece of thing.

Look how beautiful these docs are:

https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started...

Now would you rather rely on something that one person made? Or would you rely on a huge group of amazing folks, which would GLADLY help you with your project, such as the folks from Discord channel or ExponentJS on Slack.

Look, you're clearly passionate about React-Native, but surely there has to be a better way to channel it than this? How about an article explaining why it's better not to rely on on something like this, and why your way is better. Complete with samples to git clone. Then you can present it with your own thread. I am sure if you think about it, you'll realise it's a better approach.

I mean you don't need to trash someones project like a total klabnik. It's not a good way to live, trust me.
