Description

I noticed that the React Native Community CLI displays an outdated / incorrect link when initializing a project and showing macOS run instructions.

When running:

npx @react-native-community/cli init <ProjectName> --version 0.79.3

The CLI outputs:

Run instructions for macOS:
• See https://aka.ms/ReactNativeGuideMacOS for the latest up-to-date instructions.

However, this link does not point to the current React Native macOS documentation.

✅ Expected / correct link

The up-to-date documentation for getting started with React Native macOS seems to be:

👉 https://microsoft.github.io/react-native-macos/docs/getting-started

I wasn’t able to find where this macOS documentation URL is defined in the CLI codebase (or whether it comes from a shared config / template).

Could someone point me to the right place to update or override this link? (https://github.com/react-native-community/cli ?)

Happy to submit a PR once I know where this is wired.
