Re.Pack is a next generation of Haul — a Webpack-based bundler for React Native applications.

Re.Pack uses Webpack 5 and React Native CLI's plugin system to allow you to bundle your application using Webpack and allow to easily switch from Metro.

Check the base webpack.config.cjs or webpack.config.mjs template, if you're curious how it all looks like.
