Summary: In Windows, if you clicked on a Switch component to toggle it, you could see it "shimmy" back and forth once before settling. The native Switch ends up toggling three times every time it's invoked. `Switch.js` prevents the native switch from toggling to the new value by explicitly setting the switch to `this.props.value` when it receives an `onChange` event. The re-setting of the value wasn't fast enough to prevent the `Switch` from starting to toggle, causing the visual shimmy. The solution is taken from `TextInput`. `TextInput.js` stores `_lastNativeText` when it receives an `onChange` event. In `componentDidUpdate`, it puts `this.props.text` back on the native textbox if the value of `this.props.text` isn't the same as `_lastNativeText`, which is how it ensures that it is a controlled component. Porting this to the `Switch` results in only one toggle happening per invoke, removing the shimmy, while preserving the controlled component behavior. This bug is not visible on Android or iOS, only Windows, however the code causing the bug was in `Switch.js` and it seems reasonable to avoid changing the value of the native switch excessively. ## Changelog [General] [Fixed] - Fix excessive toggles on the Switch component Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/26496 Test Plan: Used RNTester on Android and iOS to test the Switch component and made sure that all scenarios behave as expected visually. Also ensured through the debugger that the value of the native switch is only being changed once, instead of three times.

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 own 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 9.0 and Android 4.1 (API 16) 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 repo, @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 the React Native Community, @react-native-community/react-native-releases.
