In the process of learning and growing as a React Native developer, at some point in your career you\u2019ll get to the point when you get a task that requires more specific\/exotic functionality than React Native abstractions can offer at that point of time. E.g. you need to use some library written in another language (C++, Obj-C, Swift, Java, Kotlin…) and there is no existing RN wrapper for this library. Or you need to create some fancy UI component which is hard to do on your own, but you know that there are plenty of UI libraries for that platform that can do exactly what you need in a couple of code lines. There could be even more examples of such scenarios, but the point is:<\/span><\/p>\n

“Sometimes you might come to a task that slightly differs from the regular workflow, and React Native doesn\u2019t provide required tools out of the box, and third party modules for solving this kind of problems do not exist, or you doubt their reliability”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That\u2019s what I faced on one of my recent projects. Hopefully, for such cases, React Native<\/a> provides a pretty comfortable way to integrate your own native modules to the project.<\/span><\/p>\n
