Rndocs

rndocs is a CLI tool that lets you search and read React Native documentation offline — no browser needed. It downloads the full React Native docs to your machine and gives you instant local search from the terminal.

Key Features

• Search the entire React Native docs instantly from your terminal
• Read full documentation pages without opening a browser
• Works completely offline after the initial sync
• Integrates with Claude Code and other AI assistants as an MCP server

Requirements

• Python 3.11 or later
• macOS, Linux, or Windows

Installation

pip install rndocs

Then download the docs once:

rndocs sync

Usage

rndocs search "FlatList"
rndocs search "animation"
rndocs search "handle keyboard"

Claude Code Integration

Add to your Claude Code MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rndocs": {
      "command": "rndocs-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude can now search and read React Native docs directly inside your conversations.
