I would think that's appropriate for React Native. It depends where you draw the line of "production-ready", but React Native falls short on a number of criteria (stability or bug-freeness for example). It's just a damn useful tool, despite its many shortcomings.

to me production-ready means ready to be used in production; If you and many people consider it useful enough to be used in production despite shortcomings, and are doing so, if the developers are aware of that and don't discourage it (does any react native documentaiton anywhere say not to use it in production?), and perhaps encourage it... it sounds production-ready to me.

So other people are the only ones who know when my project is done? And if people start using my project in production I have to immediately bump the version from 0.4 to 1? This doesn't make any sense…

Right, I'm with you. I think maybe the whole "we should all version the same way" thing probably isn't the right answer to "how do we know when it's safe to upgrade" question.
