Updates Re.Pack from the 5.4 canary to the stable 5.4.2 release, on top of #175. It also fixes the Release builds and gets the app building and launching on Xcode 27.

Re.Pack 5.4.2

  • Bumps @callstack/repack and @callstack/repack-plugin-reanimated to 5.4.2 in the catalog, host, sdk preset and docs. They're added to minimumReleaseAgeExclude until they clear the release-age gate.
  • Switches react-native.config.js to @callstack/repack/commands, because /commands/rspack is deprecated.
  • Adds @react-native/js-polyfills and @babel/plugin-syntax-typescript as direct devDependencies. Before, they only resolved through pnpm's NODE_PATH, so bundling from Xcode and Gradle failed.

Release build fixes

  • iOS: the bundle build phase now uses the community CLI, so Re.Pack bundles instead of RN's Metro-only scripts/bundle.js.
  • Android: hermesc is now found through hermes-compiler via react-native, because pnpm doesn't link it into the app's node_modules. The path includes .exe on Windows.

Xcode 27 / iOS 27

  • Raises pod deployment targets that Xcode 27 rejects (SDWebImage, AsyncStorage).
  • Adopts the UIScene lifecycle. Without it, the app crashes on launch when built with the iOS 27 SDK.

Test plan

  • pnpm typecheck, pnpm lint, pnpm test, pnpm peers check and pnpm format:check pass.
  • pnpm pods then build and run:
    • iOS Debug / Android Debug, with pnpm start running the dev servers.
    • iOS Release / Android Release, with production builds of the mini apps (react-native bundle --dev false) served on ports 9001–9003.
  • In each of the 4 builds, from a clean install, check:
    • sign in as the demo user
    • Trading list with live prices
    • BTC detail with chart, then open and close the trade sheet
    • Wallet portfolio
    • Account, then sign out

chore: update Re.Pack to 5.4.1
c169ef3 
- Bump @callstack/repack and repack-plugin-reanimated to 5.4.1 (catalog,
  host, sdk align-deps preset, docs)
- Switch react-native.config.js to the non-deprecated
  `@callstack/repack/commands` entrypoint
- Add @react-native/js-polyfills (no longer a react-native dependency on
  0.87, required by Re.Pack's NativeEntryPlugin) and
  @babel/plugin-syntax-typescript (injected by Re.Pack's babel-swc-loader)
  as direct devDependencies; both previously only resolved through pnpm's
  bin-shim NODE_PATH, so Xcode/Gradle release bundling failed
- iOS: use the community CLI in the bundle build phase so the Re.Pack
  bundle command is used instead of react-native/scripts/bundle.js
- Android: resolve hermesc from hermes-compiler via react-native's
  dependency graph, as it is not linked into the app's node_modules

fix(ios): build and launch with Xcode 27 / iOS 27 SDK
3fc4581 
- Raise pod deployment targets below the app minimum (SDWebImage and
  AsyncStorage resource bundles declare 9.0/13.0, rejected by Xcode 27)
- Adopt the UIScene lifecycle; apps built with the iOS 27 SDK crash on
  launch without it
- Regenerate Podfile.lock

Chore/update repack 5.4.2 & xcode 27 support (#177)
d7ae821 
Updates Re.Pack from the 5.4 canary to the stable 5.4.2 release, on top
of #175. It also fixes the Release builds and gets the app building and
launching on Xcode 27.

- Bumps @callstack/repack and @callstack/repack-plugin-reanimated to
5.4.2 in the catalog, host, sdk preset and docs. They're added to
minimumReleaseAgeExclude until they clear the release-age gate.
- Switches react-native.config.js to @callstack/repack/commands, because
/commands/rspack is deprecated.
- Adds @react-native/js-polyfills and @babel/plugin-syntax-typescript as
direct devDependencies. Before, they only resolved through pnpm's
NODE_PATH, so bundling from Xcode and Gradle failed.
- @babel/plugin-syntax-typescript is a workaround until
callstack/repack#1483 is released; there's a TODO next to it.
