Upgrading React Native is much easier than it once was. But 9 versions is crazy. Read up on Dan's battle scars and learn from his battles ⚔️
⛵ One upgrade. Nine React Native versions.

From red herrings to native config purgatory — this journey has it all.

Real-world errors. Unexpected twists. Hard-earned lessons.

And a battle-tested checklist at the end. ⚔️
