## What it is
A React Native library that embeds the Godot Engine (via LibGodot) into Android and iOS applications. It exposes the full Godot API to TypeScript/JavaScript and runs the engine on a separate thread with lifecycle control.

## Use cases
- embed a Godot game inside a React Native app
- run Godot scenes on a separate screen in a mobile app
- start, stop, and restart the Godot engine from JavaScript
- connect JavaScript functions to Godot signals
- build hybrid mobile apps mixing React Native UI and Godot content

## When to choose
- you have a React Native mobile app that needs embedded Godot Engine content
- you need full Godot API access from TypeScript/JavaScript
- you target Android and iOS with a stable, production-tested integration

## When to avoid
- you are building a pure Godot game without React Native
- you target platforms other than Android or iOS
- you need a lightweight 2D/3D view without a full engine runtime
