# React Native Legal: Unified Tooling for License Attributions

**[Callstack Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/callstack-blog)** · 10 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

React Native Legal is a unified tooling solution for managing open-source license attributions in React Native, Expo, and general JavaScript projects. It consists of three components: a React Native/Expo plugin that auto-generates native attribution screens for iOS and Android, a standalone CLI tool called license-kit for any JS project that generates license reports in JSON/Markdown/text and performs copyleft license checks, and a programmatic API via @callstack/react-native-legal-shared for custom processing. The CLI supports monorepos, multiple package managers, and configurable dependency filtering (dev deps, transitive deps, optional deps). The programmatic API exposes scanDependencies and output generators compatible with AboutLibraries (Android) and LicensePlist (iOS).
