+## React Native Quick SQLite Development
+
+Testing live development changes to `@journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite` will not with with standard `yarn link` commands. Metro does not work well with symlinks https://github.com/facebook/metro/issues/286.
+
+The process of releasing development packages for `@journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite` for each change can be tedious and slow. A faster (and hackier) method is to use [mtsl](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mtsl) which will watch and copy the package into this workspace's `node_modules`.
+
+```bash
+npm install -g mtsl
+```
+```bash
+mtsl add -s "[ource path to your react-native-quick-sqlite repo folder]" -d "[this workspaces root node_modules folder]"/@journeyapps/react-native-quick-sqlite
+```

+```bash
+mtsl start "[the id returned from step above]"
