How to setup fable-elmish-react native app?

Question

I'm able to setup Elmish-React by following https://github.com/fable-elmish/react

dotnet new -i "Fable.Template.Elmish.React::*"
dotnet new fable-elmish-react -n MyProject

but I can't figure out what I need to do to get the equivalent native app. I want to be able to get the simple counter example working from https://fable-elmish.github.io/react/native.html.

I've tried creating a react-native app with

$ npm install -g react-native-cli
$ react-native init AwesomeProject

This is great, but it gives me a Javascript project and I don't understand how to plugin or adjust it to make an F# project with Fable.

The Native story has been somewhat neglected since I'm not using it myself, but this example has been updated a few month ago to fairly recent tooling and it should be a good base to start from. Most of it is what you'd get from react-native init, so just clone and start playing with it.
