Summary: This pull request addresses the failing publish-npm.js script from earlier this week. For background, last month we reset all npm access tokens for any package related to Facebook, and we now require all accounts with publish permissions to have two factor enabled. The publish-npm.js script relied on one such token that is configured in Circle CI as a envvar. The token has been updated in Circle CI, but we now need a way of passing the one time password to npm. With this PR, we can now grab the otp from Circle CI's envvars. Considering otps are ephemeral, this requires the NPM_CONFIG_OTP envvar to be set by someone with publishing permissions anytime a new release will be pushed to npm. The token is short lived, but it would still be good to clear the envvar after the package is published. Circle CI envvars are not passed on to PR/forked builds. This PR is effectively a breaking change for the release process, as the publish step will not succeed if the OTP is not valid. OTPs are short-lived, and the publish_npm_package job will definitely outlive the token. Unfortunately this will require some timing to get right, but the alternative is to ssh into the Circle CI machine and re-run the `npm publish --otp` command, which again would still require someone with publish access to provide the otp.

React Native · 
Learn once, write anywhere: Build mobile apps with React.
- Build native mobile apps using JavaScript and React: React Native lets you build mobile apps using only JavaScript. It uses the same design as React, letting you compose a rich mobile UI from declarative components.
- A React Native app is a real mobile app: With React Native, you don't build a "mobile web app", an "HTML5 app", or a "hybrid app". You build a real mobile app that's indistinguishable from an app built using Objective-C, Java, or Swift. React Native uses the same fundamental UI building blocks as regular iOS and Android apps. You just put those building blocks together using JavaScript and React.
- Don't waste time recompiling: React Native lets you build your app faster. Instead of recompiling, you can reload your app instantly. With hot reloading, you can even run new code while retaining your application state. Give it a try - it's a magical experience.
- Use native code when you need to: React Native combines smoothly with components written in Objective-C, Java, or Swift. It's simple to drop down to native code if you need to optimize a few aspects of your application. It's also easy to build part of your app in React Native, and part of your app using native code directly - that's how the Facebook app works.
The focus of React Native is on developer efficiency across all the platforms you care about - learn once, write anywhere. Facebook uses React Native in multiple production apps and will continue investing in React Native.
See the official React Native website for an introduction to React Native.
Supported operating systems are >= Android 4.1 (API 16) and >= iOS 8.0.
Getting Started
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 website’s documentation is divided into multiple sections.
- There are Guides that discuss topics like debugging, integrating with existing apps, and the gesture responder system.
- The Components section covers React components such as
ViewandButton. - The APIs section covers other libraries like Animated and StyleSheet that aren’t React components themselves.
- Finally, React Native provides a small number of Polyfills that offer web-like APIs.
Another great way to learn more about the components and APIs included with React Native is to read their source. Look under the Libraries/Components directory for components like ScrollView and TextInput, for example. The RNTester example is also here to demonstrate some of the ways to use these components. From the source you can get an accurate understanding of each component’s behavior and API.
The React Native documentation only discusses the components, APIs and topics specific to React Native (React on iOS and Android). For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.
Upgrading
React Native is under active development. See the guide on upgrading React Native to keep your project up-to-date.
