Trying to get my head around the logic of installing pods under various conditions. Is this a temporary step? Because it moves some of the logic to the core, but not most of it.

Other than that and lack of types (which we can ts-expect-error and ship later) it seems to work when linked locally

Thanks for taking a look at this @thymikee. Appreciate the feedback. What sort of things would you have expected to move into core that aren't there?

Both flow and TypeScript types ship with the @react-native/core-cli-utils package.

Since we have TS typings, can we rebase and hopefully get it merged?
