Show HN: I built a template for cross-platform development (React Native & Next)

Here's a quick overview of what it includes:
Expo, NextJS, TypeScript, Tailwind, Firebase, AppsFlyer, SEO, ATT, Internationalization, Authentication, Analytics, In-App Purchases, Stripe, Push Notifications and a lot more. All setup by default.
The inspiration for building this came out of the experiences and challenges I’ve faced over the past 10 years of developing apps for iOS, Android and Web.
As developers, we tend to spend waaay too much time on boilerplate functionalities. All our time and energy should go towards building the exclusive features of our specific app, not on setting up auth, payments, analytics etc.
Additionally, if you've ever had the pleasure (pain) of launching your product on multiple platforms, you know the joy (horror) of dealing with synchronization of IAP vs Web payments, authentication, analytics, ad measurement etc. which has nothing to do with your app’s unique features.
The amount of time being wasted reinventing the wheel in this process is significant. And it’s especially silly, considering the fact that the vast majority of apps need the same exact basic functionalities that “wrap” their unique core features.
I hope this template might be able to help other devs focus on the actual core features their app offers, instead of spending an abnormal amount of time on all the standard config that users will never notice or appreciate.
Thanks for taking the time to read my rant. I’m open to feedback.
