PostHog integration for React Native

This skill helps you add PostHog analytics to React Native applications.

Workflow

Follow these steps in order to complete the integration:

basic-integration-1.0-begin.md - PostHog Setup - Begin ← Start here
basic-integration-1.1-edit.md - PostHog Setup - Edit
basic-integration-1.2-revise.md - PostHog Setup - Revise
basic-integration-1.3-conclude.md - PostHog Setup - Conclusion

Reference files

references/EXAMPLE.md - React Native example project code
references/react-native.md - React native - docs
references/identify-users.md - Identify users - docs
references/basic-integration-1.0-begin.md - PostHog setup - begin
references/basic-integration-1.1-edit.md - PostHog setup - edit
references/basic-integration-1.2-revise.md - PostHog setup - revise
references/basic-integration-1.3-conclude.md - PostHog setup - conclusion

The example project shows the target implementation pattern. Consult the documentation for API details.

Key principles

Environment variables: Always use environment variables for PostHog keys. Never hardcode them.
Minimal changes: Add PostHog code alongside existing integrations. Don't replace or restructure existing code.
Match the example: Your implementation should follow the example project's patterns as closely as possible.

Framework guidelines

posthog-react-native is the React Native SDK package name
Use react-native-config to load POSTHOG_PROJECT_TOKEN and POSTHOG_HOST from .env (variables are embedded at build time, not runtime)
react-native-svg is a required peer dependency of posthog-react-native (used by the surveys feature) and must be installed alongside it
Place PostHogProvider INSIDE NavigationContainer for React Navigation v7 compatibility

Identifying users

Identify users during login and signup events. Refer to the example code and documentation for the correct identify pattern for this framework. If both frontend and backend code exist, pass the client-side session and distinct ID using X-POSTHOG-DISTINCT-ID and X-POSTHOG-SESSION-ID headers to maintain correlation.

Error tracking

Add PostHog error tracking to relevant files, particularly around critical user flows and API boundaries.
