I don't think so. It heavily relies on native codes.

Thanks for your prompt reply... Since I am fairly new to reeact-native, I mainly make use of EXPO since API's are in a sense "easier to access", but then again, I know for a fact that this approach has its limitations... Now, from your experience, once I have this script running on my iPhone Simulator, is it easy to build an App (iphone and android) faster that using react-native CLI commands on my mac? Is there a cloud based option (either free or affordable that you may suggest) ?

Thank you once again.

Eum, as far as I know, Expo not support native modules at the cost of easiness. If you want to use custom native modules, you need to eject your app, which means that you cannot use the cloud-based IDE anymore.

If you get used to the RN environment, I think you are good to go with react-native CLI by ejecting your app from Expo. But, unfortunately, you might not be able to take advantage of the cloud-based IDE.

Thanks again for your awesome advice... So just to give me a heads up start up guide per say... I don't have any issues running the iOS emulator on my Mac but trying to set up Android has been an awful experience... I've heard of people who use another Emulator for Android on Mac (Genymotion)... Any thoughts on that? and last, from your experience... How hard is it to build an iOS / Android App locally with react-native CLI ? Compared to what I'm using right now, which is EXPO. Sorry for so many questions. You've helped me cleared a lot of doubts at once.

  • It's my pleasure to help you :) Eum, for Android side, I am not aware well of the experience with the emulator because I always have iPhone and Android in my hands. Generally speaking, Android emulator is way slower, but I think you can still make it work.

  • There is an issue you need to know about this library using on Android. This library internally connects to Google App, which means that there are chances that you need to setup Google App on your simulator, which is kind of hassle.

  • React Native CLI experience is not much different from the experience of Expo in terms of difficulty. Compared to native app development, RN without Expo is much enjoyable in my standpoint.

you should eject
then install this package, link and rebuild

can you make update in your API for expo ?
