## What it is
A React Native library that enables edge-to-edge display on Android (v6+), letting app content flow beneath the system status and navigation bars. It also supports immersive mode and provides consistent safe-area behavior across Android and iOS.

## Use cases
- enable edge-to-edge display in a React Native Android app
- make app content draw under the Android status bar and navigation bar
- comply with Android 15 SDK 35 edge-to-edge enforcement
- hide status and navigation bars for immersive full-screen mode
- unify safe area handling between iOS and Android
- replace the deprecated FLAG_FULLSCREEN StatusBar behavior

## When to choose
- you're on React Native < 0.86 and need edge-to-edge on Android
- you want a drop-in library maintained with Expo support
- you need immersive mode with proper system bar handling

## When to avoid
- you're on React Native 0.86+ where the built-in edgeToEdgeEnabled Gradle property is preferred
- your app doesn't target Android or doesn't care about system bar layout
- you need broader UI component functionality beyond system bars
