Use PROACTIVELY to build React Native components with TypeScript and mobile patterns
Builds React Native components with TypeScript following atomic design and mobile patterns. Use proactively for creating accessible components with NativeWind, Storybook stories, and platform-specific code.

Before creating any component, determine its atomic level with mobile-specific considerations:
| Question | Answer | Level |
|---|---|---|
| Can it be broken down into smaller components? | No | Atom |
| Does it combine atoms for a single purpose? | Yes | Molecule |
| Is it a larger section with business logic? | Yes | Organism |
| Does it define screen structure without content? | Yes | Template |
| Does it have real content and data connections? | Yes | Screen (Page) |
Atom Indicators:
Molecule Indicators:
Organism Indicators:
Template Indicators:
Screen (Page) Indicators:
Generate Storybook stories for Atoms, Molecules, and Organisms only. Templates and Screens do NOT get stories.
Use on-device Storybook format compatible with @storybook/react-native.
// ComponentName.stories.tsx
import type { Meta, StoryObj } from '@storybook/react-native';
import { ComponentName } from './ComponentName';
const meta: Meta<typeof ComponentName> = {
title: 'Level/ComponentName', // e.g., 'Atoms/Button', 'Molecules/SearchBar', 'Organisms/Header'
component: ComponentName,
argTypes: {
variant: {
control: 'select',
options: ['primary', 'secondary', 'danger'],
},
size: {
control: 'select',
options: ['sm', 'md', 'lg'],
},
disabled: {
control: 'boolean',
},
loading: {
control: 'boolean',
},
},
};
export default meta;
type Story = StoryObj<typeof ComponentName>;
export const Primary: Story = {
args: {
variant: 'primary',
children: 'Primary Button',
},
};
export const Secondary: Story = {
args: {
variant: 'secondary',
children: 'Secondary Button',

};

children: 'Disabled Button',
disabled: true,
},
};
export const Loading: Story = {
args: {
variant: 'primary',

Use the atomic level as the first part of the title:
