You can also check out shadow-cljs which has great support for React Native development. I've been able to easily keep my project up to date with the latest React Native versions. Plus with shadow-cljs you also get access to all of npm in a very straight forward way.
i'm seconding this. not only react native version that re-natal supports is old but also the re-frame & reagent versions it supports are pretty old. shadow-cljs is really a good solution and you can pick it up for react-native projects too.
