Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by reviewing the React Native template repository and the CLI-based build flow proposed in the message. Investigate GitHub create events and possible tag automation. Done means a decided implementation can build against the template successfully and create the corresponding tag automatically.

Description

help wanted

Is there a way to automate cutting a tag against the template when React Native cuts a new tag? This should probably try use the CLI to build against the template, once it's successful then it tags.

Github Apps seem to have support for create events, but there must be something simpler. We're looking for ideas and implementation. Input is most welcome 😄.
