Customize Your Boilerplate to Speed Up Development with Ignite
summary
Ignite CLI builds new React Native projects by applying modular plugins that add or remove features, patch native files, and prompt for per‑project variables like Google API keys; the maps example claims react-native-maps takes 20–30 minutes to configure until a plugin automates it. Generators produce components, views, and tests so that a manual 3–5 minute setup drops to ~20 seconds with generators. Boilerplates are plugins with templates and a Gluegun-based plugin that patches files and adds dependencies.
