What is react-native-website?

This repository contains the source code and content for the official React Native website, the documentation hub where developers learn how to build mobile apps using React Native. When you visit the site to read guides, browse API references, or check which companies use the framework, everything you see is powered by this repo. The project is built with Docusaurus, a tool that takes markdown files and turns them into a polished static website. The documentation itself lives in plain text files inside the docs/ folder, while the website/ directory handles the site's structure, configuration, blog posts, and page layout. One notable feature is versioning: every time a new React Native release ships, the docs get snapshot so developers can always find the reference material for the specific version they're working with, even older ones. The main audience here is contributors, people who want to fix a typo, clarify a confusing explanation, add a new guide, or update the showcase of apps built with React Native. If you spotted an error in the docs while building an app, this is where you'd come to fix it. The project is explicitly welcoming of pull requests, and most contributions are as simple as editing a markdown file. The build process is fairly standard for a documentation site. You install some dependencies, run a local server, and your browser shows a live preview of the site as you edit. A formatting tool called Prettier keeps all the files consistent. The tradeoff is that versioned docs are essentially frozen snapshots, if you fix something in the current docs, that fix doesn't automatically propagate to older versions. You'd need to manually edit each version's files if the correction matters across the board.
