I'm new to react native, and I've been having some trouble understanding the folder structure of the app which should supposedly be present in the project folder on creation. Basically, when creating the project with npm, I get some starting files (App.js etc.) and a node_modules folder. I've got it up and running with expo, which created the .expo folder as well.
However, when I go to react's official documentation or look into plugins/addons on git they talk several times about an android and an iOS folder in the project root. But they are nowhere to be seen. I then got some hints that I could install and run react-native-upgrade-git, which allegedly would generate these missing folders. But that didn't work either.
So what have I missed? Where are those folders located?
Edit: Here is a screen dump from a Youtube tutorial showing the project structure I'm looking for:

With React Native, developers can write real, natively rendering mobile applications for iOS and Android. It helps build apps on two platforms at once, while maintaining the look, feel, and productivity of an app built on the specific iOS or Android platform.
How can I regenerate ios folder in React Native project? error Unrecognized command "eject". info Run "react-native --help" to see a list of all available commands. You can init a new project that's named the same in another folder and copy ios dir over: Make sure you have clean git history before doing so, in case you need to revert
One of the points of Expo on top of React Native is that you don't go down to android or ios code. Expo deals with those folders for you, you don't need to interact with them. Is there a reason you need those folders? if so, you will have to eject. Here's the documentation to do so: Ejecting with ExpoKit
in the begining install react native, after run expo init YourProject , choose minimal (Typescript) . after that go to YourProject directory and do not run npm start. but run npm run android. hope this help Welcome to SO!

1) Take your app name from your current app.json, let's say the name is "mynativeapp" 2) make a new folder somewhere outside of your current project folder 4) the command above will make android and ios folders internally compatible by name with your project Now you can try to start your native project. I checked that for Android: enjoy!

You can get to that project structure by running:
npm run eject
However, it removes the app from the Expo framework, which adds a lot of nice benefits and abstraction from the Android/iOS code.
