Because React Native projects are essentially made up of an Android project, an iOS project and a JavaScript project, all combined under an npm package, upgrading can be rather tricky. But we try to make it easy for you. Here's what you need to do to upgrade from an older -version of React Native:

1. Upgrade the react-native dependency #

Note the latest version of the react-native npm package from here (or use npm info react-native to check):

Now install that version of react-native in your project with npm install --save.

You may consult rn-diff to see if there were changes in the project template files. In case there weren't any, simply rebuild the project and continue developing. In case of minor changes, you may update your project manually and rebuild.

If there were major changes, run this in a terminal to get these:

$ react-native upgrade

This will check your files against the latest template and perform the following:
