Configuring Metro

A Metro config can be created in these three ways (ordered by priority):

  1. metro.config.js
  2. metro.config.json
  3. The metro field in package.json

You can also give a custom file to the configuration by specifying --config <path/to/config> when calling the CLI.

note

When Metro is started via the React Native CLI, some defaults are different from those mentioned below.
