React Native v0.60.0-rc.3 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-06-28 // almost 5 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ THIS IS A RELEASE CANDIDATE: this means it's not stable yet.

    ๐Ÿš€ Please only upgrade to 0.60 if you'd like to help us test this before the stable release - which would be super useful ๐Ÿค—

    โœ… To test it, run:

    react-native init RN060 --version react-native@next
    

    Some of the major changes that this version will bring:

    • ๐Ÿ‘ AndroidX support (this will be a Breaking Change!) (if you are a library maintainer, please have a look at this issue on how to proceed for AndroidX support)
    • Full removal of WebView & Geolocation, you now need to rely on the extracted versions
    • 0๏ธโƒฃ CocoaPods integration by default
    • ๐Ÿ“ฆ Auto-linking of packages as beta support (we will tell you more about this in the future!)
    • ๐Ÿ›  some important fixes, like - for iOS - fix of universal links in iOS 12 / Xcode 10

    (once we reach stable we will create the full changelog, these are only a few highlights)

    ๐Ÿš€ You can refer to this issue for updates on the RC status, and you can post there your bug reports.
