I'm eager to know is there any way to integrate google's chrome cast and apple's airplay in react native app ?
After researching a lot on internet, I found this library is worth. It has both SDKs included in its core components with great examples.

We are building an app that will be available on iOS, Android, and as a Chrome extension.
We are considering to use React Native for these three platforms.
I cannot find many accounts of React Native being used for building Chrome extensions, but there is one guide that explains how to do this: https://mmazzarolo.com/blog/2021-09-25-running-react-native-everywhere-electron-browser-ext/.
So, since there is not much information available, we are not sure what is best: Building the Chrome extension cross-platform or building it separately.
Would cross-platform be an efficient solution for a chrome extension or would we encounter problems?
Thanks for any advice!
I'm building a React Native App for a Chinese Company. I'm using Expo.
I really would love to use Google Maps, but it is not allowed there...
The best solution I found was to use Baidu Map,
I searched for SDKs and found some of them in GitHub.
I decided to use this one: https://github.com/qiuxiang/react-native-baidumap-sdk
which provides great documentation.
Although, I'm having some trouble implementing it to the app. I think that they don't support expo.
Does anyone here ever have a similar problem?
Or used another map...
Would really save my life!
This library uses native (Android & iOS) SDKs and provides a React Native API on top of them. Expo does not yet support custom native modules, which means you'll have to eject from it to use this package (or any other that uses BaiduMap or other native code).
I'm guessing they probably have a web based JS SDK instead which you could try to integrate into your app via a <WebView /> instead?
As per project requirement, need to do automation testing on the Reactnative app for Android/iOS platforms. I have seen many frameworks available such as appium, Cavy, Detox.
Need help in the selection of framework for reactnative app testing.
Have appium automation(with Java) experience for Android application.
I'm currently working on developing and maintaining Cavy, so if you have any particular questions regarding Cavy as a solution, I'd be happy to help. Just pop any issues/questions on the GitHub issue tracker.
We're in the process of moving all our documentation to our new site, but it does include a comparison with Detox in the FAQs that you may find useful :)
I just started using React Native a few days ago and want to build my next iOS/Android app with it. However, I had a question (and I apologize in advance if this question is very basic).
If I am integrating my iOS and Android apps built with React Native, with an external service (like Salesforce for example), how do I go about using the native mobile SDKs they provide for iOS and Android? As in, what do I do to integrate those SDKs into my React Native app? Those SDKs are using native Objective-C and Java code, so how would I be able to use the JS code for React Native? I believe my understanding about this is skewed.
I looked at this link which goes into it, but it seemed very confusing and I had a bit of a hard time grasping the concept (again, I am very new to this - I've done a lot of web development, hence turning my attention to React Native, but I've done no mobile development whatsoever).
If someone could please explain how that works, and point me in the right direction where I can read and learn more, I would sincerely appreciate that!
Thank you!

Update:
There are react native packages build by open react native community if you couldn't find anything to access native iOS or android functionality you will have to write react native wrapper yourself using react native "Native Modules"
Native Modules
Purely informational question, not really a problem but:
I remember following the instructions and seeing that there were some steps to get the react-native-fbsdk working. These steps involved messing with my android build.gradle and adding the iOS SDK and the info.plist and whatnot. That aside, why doesn't Facebook utilize the javascript SDK? Is it not possible? If so, why is it not possible for Facebook to do this? If it is possible, why did they opt to utilize the both the android and iOS SDK?
One value prop of React Native is that it's not just an HTML 5 website embedded in a native wrapper. It literally uses the native APIs/components, and the same goes for SDKs. Technically, a pure JS SDK could be optimized for a browser experience, rely on window or document, and while the functionality might be able to be executed natively, the polyfills provided in RN might not be enough to cover the implementation. The way it makes API calls are probably different too. The views are different too (no DOM in RN), so that would apply for any SDK views (button?).
I just finished converting an iOS SDK to a React Native package and I feel that the implementation will be more inline with how the original iOS SDK was designed, since it's using those methods under the covers instead of pure JS. JS is just invoking the native methods, not taking over the methods.
Just my $0.02...
