rel="noopener noreferrer">a survey</a> to learn more about how and when people use the React Native docs. With the data and guidance gleaned from 24 interviews and over 3000 survey responses, we&#x27;ve been able to work to improve React Native&#x27;s documentation, and we&#x27;re excited to share that progress today:</p><ul><li><strong><a href="https://reactnative.dev/docs/getting-started" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">New Getting Started guides</a></strong> We launched new Getting Started with docs to <a href="https://reactnative.dev/docs/intro-react-native-components" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">explain what Native Components</a> are to people with no mobile development background.

These principles represent our team specifically and do not necessarily represent every stakeholder in the React Native community. We are sharing these principles here to be more transparent about what drives us, how we make decisions, and how we focus our efforts.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="native-experience"></a><strong>Native Experience</strong><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#native-experience" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>Our top priority for React Native is to <strong>match the expectations people have for each platform</strong>. This is why React Native renders to platform primitives. We value native look-and-feel over cross-platform consistency.</p><p>For example, the TextInput in React Native renders to a UITextField on iOS. This ensures that integration with password managers and keyboard controls work out of the box. By using platform primitives, React Native apps are also able to stay up-to-date with design and behavior changes from new releases of Android and iOS.</p><p>In order to match the look-and-feel of native apps, we must also match their performance. This is where we focus our most ambitious efforts. For example, Facebook created Hermes, <a href="https://facebook.github.io/react-native/blog/2019/07/17/hermes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">a new JavaScript Engine built from scratch for React Native on Android</a>. Hermes significantly improves the start time of React Native apps. We are also working on major architectural changes that optimize the threading model and make React Native easier to interoperate with native code.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="massive-scale"></a>Massive Scale<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#massive-scale" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>Hundreds of screens in the Facebook app are implemented with React Native. The Facebook app is used by billions of people on a huge range of devices. <strong>This is why</strong> <strong>we invest in the most challenging problems at scale.</strong></p><p>Deploying React Native in our apps lets us identify problems that we wouldn’t see at a smaller scale. For example, Facebook focuses on improving performance across a broad spectrum of devices from the newest iPhone to many older generations of Android devices. This focus informs our architecture projects such as Hermes, Fabric, and TurboModules.</p><p>We have proven that React Native can scale to massive organizations too. When hundreds of developers are working on the same app, gradual adoption is a must. This is why we made sure that React Native can be adopted one screen at a time. Soon, we will be taking this one step further and enable migrating individual native views of an existing native screen to React Native.</p><p>A focus on massive scale means there are many things our team isn’t currently working on. For example, our team doesn’t drive the adoption of React Native in the industry. We also do not actively build solutions for problems that we don’t see at scale. We are proud that we have <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/ECOSYSTEM.md" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">many partners and core contributors</a> that are able to focus on those important areas for the community.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="developer-velocity"></a>Developer Velocity<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#developer-velocity" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>Great user experiences are created iteratively. <strong>It should only take a few seconds to seeing the result of code changes</strong> in a running app. React Native&#x27;s architecture enables it to provide near-instant feedback during development.</p><p>We often hear from teams that adopting React Native significantly improved their development velocity. These teams find that the instant feedback during development makes it much easier to try different ideas and add extra polish when they don’t have to interrupt their coding session for every little change. When we make changes to React Native, we make sure to preserve this quality of the developer experience.</p><p>Instant feedback is not the only way that React Native improves developer velocity. Teams can easily leverage the fast-growing ecosystem of high quality open source packages. Teams can also share business logic between Android, iOS, and the web. This helps them ship updates faster and reduce organizational silos between platform teams.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="every-platform"></a>Every Platform<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#every-platform" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>When we introduced React Native in 2014, we presented it with our motto “Learn once, write anywhere” — and we mean <em>anywhere</em>. <strong>Developers should be able to reach as many people as possible without being limited by device model or operating system.</strong></p><p>React Native targets very different platforms including mobile, desktop, web, TV, VR, game consoles, and more. We want to enable rich experiences on each platform instead of requiring developers to build for the lowest common denominator. To accomplish this, we focus on supporting the unique features of each platform. This ranges from varying input mechanisms (e.g. touch, pen, mouse) to fundamentally different consumption experiences like 3D environments in VR.</p><p>This principle informed our decision to implement React Native’s new core architecture in cross-platform C++ to promote parity across platforms. We are also refining the public interface targeted at other platform maintainers like Microsoft with Windows and macOS. We strive to enable any platforms to support React Native.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="declarative-ui"></a>Declarative UI<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#declarative-ui" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>We don’t believe in deploying the exact same user interface on every platform, we believe in <strong>exposing each platform’s unique capabilities with the same declarative programming model</strong>. Our declarative programming model is React.</p><p>In our experience, the unidirectional data flow popularized by React makes applications easier to understand. We prefer to express a screen as a composition of declarative components rather than imperatively managed views. React’s success on the web and the direction of the new native Android and iOS frameworks show that the industry has also embraced declarative UI.</p><p>React popularized declarative user interfaces. However, there remain many unsolved problems that React is uniquely positioned to solve. React Native will continue to build on top of the innovations of React and remain at the forefront of the declarative user interface movement.</p></section><footer class="row margin-vert--lg"><div class="col"><strong>Tags:</strong><a class="margin-horiz--sm" href="/blog/tags/announcement">announcement</a></div></footer></article><article class="margin-bottom--xl"><header><h2 class="margin-bottom--sm blogPostTitle_206m"><a href="/blog/2020/07/06/version-0.63">Announcing React Native 0.63 with LogBox</a></h2><div class="margin-vert--md"><time datetime="2020-07-06T00:00:00.000Z" class="blogPostDate_BxXe">July 6, 2020 · 8 min read</time></div><div class="avatar margin-vert--md"><a class="avatar__photo-link avatar__photo" href="https://twitter.com/grabbou" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img src="https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/2464966?s=460&amp;v=4" alt="Mike Grabowski"></a><div class="avatar__intro"><h4 class="avatar__name"><a href="https://twitter.com/grabbou" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mike Grabowski</a></h4><small class="avatar__subtitle">CTO and Co-Founder at Callstack</small></div></div></header><section class="markdown"><p>Today we’re releasing React Native 0.63 that ships with LogBox turned on by default.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="logbox"></a>LogBox<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#logbox" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>We’ve heard frequent feedback from the community that errors and warnings are difficult to debug in React Native. To address these issues we took a look at the entire error, warning, and log system in React Native and redesigned it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8brBH5O-bQ&amp;feature=youtu.be" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">from the ground up</a>.</p><p><img alt="Screenshot of LogBox" src="/assets/images/0.63-logbox-a209851328e548bf0810bdee050fb960.png"></p><p>LogBox is a completely redesigned redbox, yellowbox, and logging experience in React Native. In 0.62 we introduced LogBox as an opt-in. In this release, we’re launching LogBox as the default experience in all of React Native.</p><p>LogBox addresses complaints that errors and warnings were too verbose, poorly formatted, or unactionable by focusing on three primary goals:</p><ul><li><strong>Concise</strong>: Logs should provide the minimum amount of information necessary to debug an issue.</li><li><strong>Formatted</strong>: Logs should be formatted so that you can quickly find the information you need.</li><li><strong>Actionable</strong>: Logs should be actionable, so you can fix the issue and move on.</li></ul><p>To achieve these goals, LogBox includes:</p><ul><li><strong>Log notifications</strong>: We’ve redesigned the warning notifications and added support for errors so that all console.warn and console.log messages show up as notifications instead of covering your app.</li><li><strong>Code Frames</strong>: Every error and warning now includes a code frame that shows the source code of the log right inside the app, allowing you to quickly identify the source of your issue.</li><li><strong>Component Stacks</strong>: All component stacks are now stripped from error messages and put into their own section with the top three frames visible. This gives you a single, consistent space to expect stack frame information that doesn’t clutter the log message.</li><li><strong>Stack Frame Collapsing</strong>: By default we now collapse call stack frames not related to your application’s code so you can quickly see the issue in your app and not sift through React Native internals.</li><li><strong>Syntax Error Formatting</strong>: We’ve improved the formatting for syntax errors and added codeframes with syntax highlighting so you can see the source of the error, fix it, and continue coding without React Native getting in your way.</li></ul><p>We’ve wrapped all of these features into an improved visual design that’s consistent between errors and warnings and allows paginating through all logs in one enjoyable UI.</p><p>With this change we’re also deprecating YellowBox in favor of LogBox APIs:</p><ul><li><code>LogBox.ignoreLogs()</code>: This function replaces <code>YellowBox.ignoreLogs([])</code> as a way to silence any logs that match the given strings or regexes.</li><li><code>LogBox.ignoreAllLogs()</code>: This function replaces <code>console.disableYellowBox</code> as a way to turn off error or warning notifications. Note: this only disables notifications, uncaught errors will still open a full screen LogBox.</li></ul><p>In 0.63, we will warn when using these deprecated modules or methods. Please update your call sites off of these APIs before they are removed in 0.64.</p><p>For more information on LogBox and debugging react native, see the docs <a href="https://reactnative.dev/docs/debugging#in-app-errors-and-warnings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="pressable"></a>Pressable<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#pressable" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>React Native is built to enable applications to meet user’s expectations of the platform. This includes avoiding “tells”—little things that give away that the experience was built with React Native. One major source of these tells has been the Touchable components: <code>Button</code>, <code>TouchableWithoutFeedback</code>, <code>TouchableHighlight</code>, <code>TouchableOpacity</code>, <code>TouchableNativeFeedback</code>, and <code>TouchableBounce</code>. These components make your application interactive by allowing you to provide visual feedback to user interactions. However, because they include built-in styles and effects that don’t match the platform interaction, users can tell when experiences are written with React Native.</p><p>Further, as React Native has grown and our bar for high-quality applications has gone up, these components haven&#x27;t grown with it. React Native now supports platforms like Web, Desktop, and TV, but support for additional input modalities has been lacking. React Native needs to support high-quality interaction experiences on all platforms.</p><p>To address these problems, we are shipping a new core component called <code>Pressable</code>. This component can be used to detect various types of interactions. The API was designed to provide direct access to the current state of interaction without having to maintain state manually in a parent component. It was also designed to enable platforms to extend it&#x27;s capabilities to include hover, blur, focus, and more. We expect that most people will build and share components utilizing <code>Pressable</code> under the hood instead of relying on the default experience of something like <code>TouchableOpacity</code>.</p><div class="mdxCodeBlock_xYIz"><div class="codeBlockContent_rlEb"><button tabindex="0" type="button" aria-label="Copy code to clipboard" class="copyButton_kOW4">Copy</button><div class="prism-code language-jsx codeBlock_1AP7"><div class="codeBlockLines_1boI" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token keyword" style="color:#c5a5c5">import</span><span class="token plain"> </span><span class="token punctuation" style="color:#657b83">{</span><span class="token plain"> Pressable</span><span class="token punctuation" style="color:#657b83">,</span><span class="token plain"> Text </span><span class="token punctuation" style="color:#657b83">}</span><span class="token plain"> </span><span class="token keyword" style="color:#c5a5c5">from</span><span class="token plain"> </span><span class="token string" style="color:#8dc891">&#x27;react-native&#x27;</span><span class="token punctuation" style="color:#657b83">;</span><span class="token plain"></span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain" style="display:inline-block">

Colors that automatically respond to system theme settings such as Light or Dark mode, accessibility settings such as a High Contrast mode, and even its context within the app such as the traits of a containing view or window.</p><p>While it is possible to detect some of these settings via the <a href="https://reactnative.dev/docs/appearance#getcolorscheme" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Appearance</code></a> API and/or <a href="https://reactnative.dev/docs/accessibilityinfo#isgrayscaleenabled" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>AccessibilityInfo</code></a> and set your styles accordingly, such abstractions are not only costly to develop but are just approximating the appearance of native colors. These inconsistencies are particularly noticeable when working on a hybrid application, where React Native elements co-exist next to the native ones.</p><p>React Native now provides an out-of-the-box solution to use these system colors. <code>PlatformColor()</code> is a new API that can be used like any other color in React Native.</p><p>For example, on iOS, the <a href="https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uicolor/ui_element_colors?language=objc" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">system provides a color called <code>labelColor</code></a>.

This change will allow us to move faster by being able to reduce the number of compatibility checks that need to be placed in the native code to detect whether a given feature was supported on a certain iOS version. With its <a href="https://david-smith.org/iosversionstats/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">market share of 1%</a>, it shouldn’t have much negative impact on your customers.</p><p>At the same time, we are dropping support for Node 8. <a href="https://nodejs.org/fr/blog/release/v8.9.0/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Its LTS maintenance cycle expired in December 2019</a>. The current LTS is Node 10 and it is now the version that we are targeting.

It didn’t work reliably for function components, often failed to update the screen, and wasn’t resilient to typos and mistakes. We heard that most people turned it off because it was too unreliable.</p><p>In React Native 0.61, <strong>we’re unifying the existing “live reloading” (reload on save) and “hot reloading” features into a single new feature called “Fast Refresh”</strong>. Fast Refresh was implemented from scratch with the following principles:</p><ul><li>Fast Refresh <strong>fully supports modern React</strong>, including function components and Hooks.</li><li>Fast Refresh <strong>gracefully recovers after typos</strong> and other mistakes, and falls back to a full reload when needed.</li><li>Fast Refresh <strong>doesn’t perform invasive code transformations</strong> so it’s reliable enough to be on by default.</li></ul><p>To see Fast Refresh in action, check out this video:</p><p style="text-align:center"><video width="700" controls="" autoplay=""><source type="video/mp4" src="https://reactnative.dev/img/homepage/ReactRefresh.mp4"></video></p><p>Give it a try, and let us know what you think! If you prefer, you can turn it off in the Dev Menu (Cmd+D on iOS, Cmd+M or Ctrl+M on Android). Turning it on and off is instant so you can do it any time.</p><p>Here are a few Fast Refresh tips:</p><ul><li>Fast Refresh preserves React local state in function components (and Hooks!) by default.</li><li>If you need to reset the React state on every edit, you can add a special <code>// @refresh reset</code> comment to the file with that component.</li><li>Fast Refresh always remounts class components without preserving state. This ensures it works reliably.</li><li>We all make mistakes in the code! Fast Refresh automatically retries rendering after you save a file. You don&#x27;t need to reload the app manually after fixing a syntax or a runtime error.</li><li>Adding a <code>console.log</code> or a <code>debugger</code> statement during edits is a neat debugging technique.</li></ul><p>Please report any issues with Fast Refresh on GitHub, and we’ll look into them.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="other-improvements"></a>Other Improvements<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#other-improvements" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><ul><li><strong>Fixed use_frameworks!

We have also integrated CocoaPods into the e2e tests runs, so that from now on, we have a unified standard way of integrating RN into iOS apps. This effectively deprecates the React .xcodeproj support, and the file has been removed starting 0.61.

With this data in hand, we knew we had to optimize JavaScript performance in the more constrained environments of a mobile phone compared with a desktop or laptop.

Finally, thank you contributors for helping us to make this milestone!</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="focus-on-accessibility"></a>Focus on Accessibility<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#focus-on-accessibility" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>There have been many improvements to the accessibility APIs, like <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/cfe0032" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">announceForAccessibility</a>, plus improvements to <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/1aeac1c" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">roles</a>, <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/14b4668" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">action support</a>, <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/0090ab3" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">flags</a>, and more. Accessibility is a complex science, but we hope these improvements make it a bit easier to be an A11Y.

For 0.60, React Native has been migrated over to AndroidX. This is a breaking change, and <strong>your native code and dependencies will need to be migrated</strong> as well.</p><blockquote><p>With this change, React Native apps will need to begin using AndroidX themselves. They cannot be used side-by-side in one app, so all of the app code and dependency code needs to be using one or the other.</p><p><a href="https://github.com/matt-oakes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">matt-oakes</a> on <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/129" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">discussions-and-proposals</a></p></blockquote><p>While your own native code will need to be migrated by you, <a href="https://github.com/mikehardy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">@mikehardy</a>, <a href="https://github.com/cawfree" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">@cawfree</a>, and <a href="https://github.com/m4tt72" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">@m4tt72</a> built a <a href="https://github.com/mikehardy/jetifier" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">clever tool named &quot;jetifier&quot;</a> to patch your <code>node_modules</code>.

In just over two weeks, the community sent ~40 Pull Requests to complete this work for flow typed native modules. Aside from the people already mentioned above, we’d like to thank <a href="https://twitter.com/michalchudziak" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Michał Chudziak</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/thymikee" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Michał Pierzchała</a>, <a href="https://github.com/wojteg1337" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Wojtek Szafraniec</a>, and <a href="https://github.com/jeanregisser" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jean Regisser</a> and everyone else who sent one or more Pull Requests.</li><li><strong>Haste:</strong> Since 2015 React Native used the <a href="https://github.com/reactjs/reactjs.org/commit/0629e3e2289ed54fac854472aec9a5f6c8318c98#diff-c42b758729cb89976b3a8fd51d1227fa" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">“haste” module system</a> that allows importing modules just via a global id instead of a relative path which is convenient but not well supported by many tools. <a href="https://twitter.com/JI" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">James Ide</a> proposed removing haste, similar to how React removed haste many years ago. He planned all the work through an <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/24316" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">umbrella task</a> and he sent 18 Pull Requests to make it happen!

In just a six months repositories like <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-webview" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">WebView</a>, <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-netinfo" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NetInfo</a>, <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-async-storage" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">AsyncStorage</a>, the <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native-website" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">website</a> and the <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/cli" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CLI</a> received more than 800 Pull Requests combined. Besides better maintenance, these projects can also be independently released more often than React Native itself.</p><p>We have also taken the opportunity to remove obsolete polyfills and legacy components from React Native itself. Polyfills were necessary in the past to support language features like <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Map" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Map</code></a> and <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Set" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Set</code></a> in older versions of JavaScriptCore (JSC). Now that React Native ships with a new version, these polyfills were removed.</p><p>This work is still in progress and many more things still need to be split out or removed both on the native and JavaScript side but there are early signs that we managed to reverse the trend of increasing the surface area and app size: When looking at the JavaScript bundle for example, about a year ago in version 0.54 the React Native JavaScript bundle size was 530kb and grew to 607kb (+77kb) by version 0.57 in just 6 months. Now we are seeing a bundle size reduction of 28kb down to 579kb on master, a delta of more than 100kb!</p><p>As we conclude the first iteration of the Lean Core effort, we will make an effort to be more intentional about new APIs added to React Native and we will continuously evaluate ways to make React Native smaller and faster, as well as finding ways to empower the community to take ownership of various components.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="user-feedback"></a>User Feedback<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#user-feedback" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>Six months ago we asked the community “<a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/64" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">What do you dislike about React Native?</a>” which gave a good overview of problems people are facing. We <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/104" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">replied to the post a few months ago</a> and it&#x27;s time to summarize the progress that was made on top issues:</p><ul><li><strong>Upgrading:</strong> The React Native community rallied around with multiple improvements to the upgrading experience: <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/blob/master/docs/autolinking.md" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">autolinking</a>, a better upgrading command via <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/rn-diff-purge" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rn-diff-purge</a>, an upgrade helper website (coming soon). We’ll also make sure to communicate breaking changes and exciting new features by publishing blog posts for each major release. Many of these improvements will make future upgrades beyond the 0.60 release significantly easier.</li><li><strong>Support / Uncertainty:</strong> Many people were frustrated with the lack of activity on Pull Requests and general uncertainty about Facebook&#x27;s investment in React Native. As we&#x27;ve shown above, we can confidently say that we are ready for many more Pull Requests and we are eagerly looking forward to your proposals and contributions!</li><li><strong>Performance:</strong> React Native 0.59 shipped with a new and much faster version of JavaScriptCore (JSC). Separately, we have been working on making it easier to enable <a href="/docs/performance#ram-bundles-inline-requires">inline-requires</a> by default and we have more exciting updates for you in the next couple of months.</li><li><strong>Documentation:</strong> We recently started an effort to <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native-website/issues/929" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">overhaul and rewrite all of React Native&#x27;s documentation</a>.

We collaborated with the Marketplace team to improve quality and add delight to the product. At this point, Marketplace is one of the highest quality products in the Facebook app both on Android and iOS.</li><li>Marketplace&#x27;s performance was a big challenge as well, especially on mid-end Android devices. We cut startup time by more than 50% over the last year with more improvements on the way! The biggest improvements are being built into React Native and will be coming to the community later this year.</li><li>We have the confidence that we can build the high quality and performant apps that Facebook needs with React Native. This confidence has let us invest in bigger bets, like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcqRXTriUVI&amp;app=desktop" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rethinking the core of React Native</a>.</li><li>Microsoft supports and uses React Native for Windows, enabling people to use their expertise and codebase to render to Microsofts&#x27;s Universal Windows Platform. Check out Microsoft Build next week to <a href="https://mybuild.techcommunity.microsoft.com/sessions/77321" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">hear them talk about that more</a>.</li></ul><h3><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_3pqN" id="react-radio-podcast-about-open-source"></a>React Radio Podcast about Open Source<a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="hash-link" href="#react-radio-podcast-about-open-source" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h3><p>Eli&#x27;s talk concludes by talking about our recent open source work.
