" summary

Claims that many React Native bugs are small and solvable by setting up build from source, creating a minimum reproducible example, and using Flipper, console.log and Android Studio breakpoints. Examples: cropping a 915×600 rectangle speeds barcode decoding in react-native-camera; replacing visibleViewHeight with mLastHeight fixes status-bar offset; checking API level >=28 and using Typeface.create enables numeric font weights. Reports that bridge-related text-input lag and FlatList callback bugs exist, but reproducing and stepping into the Java side locates simple fixes.
