## What it is
A React Native module that registers a global error handler to capture fatal and non-fatal uncaught exceptions, both JavaScript and native. It prevents apps from crashing abruptly by allowing developers to show graceful messages or send bug reports.

## Use cases
- capture uncaught exceptions in react native app
- show a graceful dialog instead of app crash
- send crash reports to dev team
- handle native unhandled exceptions in react native
- prevent app from quitting silently in production
- integrate global error handler with analytics modules

## When to choose
- you need a global handler for uncaught JS and native exceptions in React Native
- you want to show users a friendly message instead of a silent crash
- you need to forward crash info to your own reporting or analytics pipeline

## When to avoid
- you need full crash reporting with symbolication and dashboards (use Sentry or Crashlytics)
- your project no longer uses React Native
- you only need error boundaries for React component trees

## Facets
- artifact type: library

- function: error-handling, logging, monitoring
- domain: mobile-development, developer-tools
- platform: -
