How to create a Coconut + React Native project from scratch

In a nutshell:

1. Create a new React Native project according to the official documentation
2. Create a Haxe project with Coconut (coconut.react-native)
3. Replace the "entry point view" with one built with Coconut

Typically, the "entry point view" is registered with AppRegistry.registerComponent('my-app', () => Main); Since any coconut.react.View is a legitimate react component, so it can be used directly for registration. You can use Haxe's @:expose metadata to obtain the reference in JS and register there. You can also call registerComponent in Haxe code directly.
