Support for react-native-windows

[exotexot]

Hello, will there be support for react-native-windows?

I'm going to answer for you @DylanVann, correct me if you have different goals.

The library is a wrapper library for 2 different native libraries out there, SDWebImage and Glide. Those are separate modules, used in native iOS and Android apps (respectively). If there is a similar library that allows caching of Image components for Windows (WinRT, C++), then we could technically integrate and wrap this library. I'm currently expanding my native module to support windows as well, maybe I can lend a hand here.

But I highly doubt this will be supported, since react-native-windows isn't as widely adopted as iOS and Android (yet) and creating a windows native module is pretty hard because it's in such an early stage. Also, I think the standard Image component is powerful enough on Windows WinRT, not sure how it handles caching though.

I would love to see this happen. We were running into issues and our app is deployed to all android/ios/windows/others so having a single package handle things is ideal. Would be great to have windows support to react-native-fast-image.

Is there anyway to set a fallback for windows to use Image?

Do you have any replacement for this lib in RN windows ? :)
