How does this skill help identify React Native bottlenecks?

It provides step-by-step instructions for using profiling tools like Flipper, React DevTools Profiler, and the built-in Performance Monitor to track render times, bridge calls, and component re-renders.

How does it handle memory management in React Native?

The skill offers standardized patterns for cleaning up event listeners, clearing timers, and preventing async state updates on unmounted components to eliminate common memory leaks.

Can it help with slow FlatList performance?

Yes, it includes specific configurations for props like removeClippedSubviews and getItemLayout, as well as migration guides for Shopify's FlashList to handle large datasets efficiently.

Does it support animation optimization?

Absolutely. It covers implementation patterns for the native driver in the Animated API and advanced usage of the Reanimated library to ensure animations run smoothly on the UI thread.
