React Native & yarn workspaces

Things to remember when using workspaces

• Flow runs in each package not on the whole workspace
• apply nohoist to all modules that contain native code (ios & android code)
  • Avoids ios and android build directory clashes
  • More likely to work with react-native link
  • Pure JS libraries work fine without nohoist
• Always yarn install at the root not in a package/rider directory
