_{Counts verified from the GitHub API on October 7, 2026. "Landed via maintainer PR" is a change that shipped through the maintainer's own commit rather than this pull request: quasar#18541, carried with a Co-authored-by trailer, and react-native-gesture-handler#4518, whose diagnosis the maintainer reimplemented and cited in the shipped source. Both show as closed. Closed pull requests are counted in the total rather than hidden.}

Libraries I've Published

Native modules for the New Architecture, plus one SwiftUI package. All MIT, all with example apps and CI.

Library	What it does
react-native-device-pulse	Device health from JS: thermal state, low power mode, memory warnings. Event listeners and React hooks.
react-native-app-shortcuts	Home screen quick actions. UIApplicationShortcutItem on iOS, ShortcutManager on Android.
react-native-shared-transition	Shared element transitions between screens. Revived and rewritten, with the first working iOS build in the project's history.
react-native-tipkit	Apple's TipKit for React Native: popover and inline tips, display rules, event counts, frequency control.
react-native-image-analysis	On-device OCR with text geometry, barcodes, and a tap-to-select text view. Apple VisionKit on iOS, Google ML Kit on Android.
react-native-ios-controls	Control Center, Lock Screen and Action Button controls (iOS 18 ControlWidget), plus a CLI that wires up the widget target for you.
ToastKit	A polished SwiftUI toast and snackbar library: queued toasts, semantic styles, swipe-to-dismiss, full accessibility.
