How to Check the Installed Version of React Native

To find out the ve­rsion of the react-native package­ in your project, go to the root directory of your proje­ct and open the package.json file­. Look for the react-native ve­rsion mentioned under the­ dependencie­s section. For example,

"dependencies": {
    ...
    "react": "18.2.0",
    "react-dom": "18.2.0",
    "react-native": "0.72.4",
    ...
}

Alternatively, you can check by running the below command using terminal on your mac:

While upgrading your project from 0.X.XX to 0.Y.YY, you can use the community upgrade helper link which helps you to migrate the project with ease. It uses rn-diff-purge, react-diff-view and create-react-app.
