" summary

React Native is now open source for iOS and Android, used inside the main Facebook app and in Ads Manager where teams reuse 85% code shared between platforms, cutting duplicate work; builds can be painful elsewhere (one app took 40 minutes) but RN gives instant reload <1s and a declarative UI that diffs minimal updates. Community tools like React Native Playground and APM-style aphub exist, the repo has 200+ contributors, Android-specific modules (toast, ripple) and hybrid wrapping of native Java/Objective‑C components are supported.
