React Native, Meet node.js Native Addons

" summary

The talk explains using Node-API (N-API) to expose native APIs to JavaScript in an ABI-stable, engine-agnostic way so native modules can be shared across ecosystems. It covers current React Native native-module approaches (bridgeful, bridgeless, Expo Modules, Static Hermes), shows Microsoft’s use of Node-API in React Native for Windows, and discusses implications for broader cross-ecosystem reuse of native modules.
