React Native + BabylonJS : What is the current status?

Questions
1

Hello,

I need to put my hands into building a React Native app with BabylonJS right now, and I’m wondering what is the current status :

  • The official Sample Repo seems to have received no update in the last 3 years, is it deprecated ? Does it make sense to use it to start a project today ?
  • The @babylonjs/react-native package suggests that the latest React Native version supported is 0.70 which is quite old and also not compatible with TypeScript. Is there a way (a sample code ?) to use BabylonJS with last version of React Native ?

Basically I’m looking for an up-to-date way of starting a React Native BabylonJS app :slight_smile:

Thanks !

Good question for @BabylonNative

BabylonReactNative is a few RN versions behind. We are still looking for a more efficient way to keep track of new RN versions. Did you try this framework ? Reactylon: The React Framework for XR - #21 by SimoneDev

There is a CLI command that generates a minimal Babylon React Native project using React 18 and React Native 0.74.2. Happy to help if you need any support!
