Summary: Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/50922 This forms the basis for a replacement of `TextView`. This started off with Litho's [`RCTextView`](https://github.com/facebook/litho/blob/master/litho-rendercore-text/src/main/java/com/facebook/rendercore/text/RCTextView.java), which is a simple view, for rendering a text layout, and providing some built-in keyboard navigation and a11y support. Many changes were made to it, including: 1. Removing many parts not relevant to RN, or which will be replaced by other RN infra. E.g. we will reuse existing a11y delegates, have existing ways of creating Spannables and text layouts, inline views, etc 2. Converting to Kotlin 3. Adding back in some changes required for RN's drawing, and expected view manager APIs (e.g. overflow/clipping customization) 4. Making it target a ViewGroup instead of a View, for correct inline view support down the line Because we rely on drawing text layout, with the same Spannable as before, most things "just work", because they are part of the layout we are drawing, generated by TextLayoutManager on the Fabric side. We don't offer much customization to what can be drawn, forcing it to have happened in the layout we are showing already. There are quite a few bits not implemented yet. Some of these are cases, like `textAlignVertical`, were previously incorrectly implemented just at the ReactTextView layer, so Fabric layout was unaware of them. Another similar class to this is any non-default fonts which we must load. `adjustsFontSizeToFit` (stubbed out in later diff) will also need some tweaking with the new assumption we don’t want to mutate Spans/layouts set in State. Fine grained selection support is the largest tbd. Changelog: [Internal] Reviewed By: Abbondanzo Differential Revision: D73282649 fbshipit-source-id: abe3a30461095d2d0ddbc6c939704f3982f44771
React Native

React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform.
- Declarative. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug.
- Component-Based. Build encapsulated components that manage their state, then compose them to make complex UIs.
- Developer Velocity. See local changes in seconds. Changes to JavaScript code can be live reloaded without rebuilding the native app.
- Portability. Reuse code across iOS, Android, and other platforms.
React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors. Find out more in our ecosystem overview.

📋 Requirements
React Native apps may target iOS 15.1 and Android 7.0 (API 24) or newer. You may use Windows, macOS, or Linux as your development operating system, though building and running iOS apps is limited to macOS. Tools like Expo can be used to work around this.
🎉 Building your first React Native app
Follow the Getting Started guide. The recommended way to install React Native depends on your project. Here you can find short guides for the most common scenarios:
📖 Documentation
The full documentation for React Native can be found on our website.
The React Native documentation discusses components, APIs, and topics that are specific to React Native. For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.
The source for the React Native documentation and website is hosted on a separate repository, @facebook/react-native-website.
🚀 Upgrading
Upgrading to new versions of React Native may give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools, and other goodies. See the Upgrading Guide for instructions.
React Native releases are discussed in this discussion repo.
