react-native-bridge

This React Native package provides a bridge for accessing native APIs, enabling seamless integration between React Native and platform-specific features that aren't directly available in the React Native ecosystem. By leveraging this bridge, developers can invoke native functions from JavaScript, offering a more extensive range of capabilities for their apps.
