An experimental React Native library providing a declarative API for building fluid, physics-based interactive views that run at 60 FPS. It uses a native driver to handle gesture-driven interactions like swipeable cards, drawers, and collapsible headers without crossing the JS bridge.

Use cases

• build swipeable cards that spring into place in react native
• create a drawer that snaps open and closed with drag gestures
• implement a collapsible header that shrinks on scroll
• make draggable chat heads that snap to screen corners
• add physics-based gesture interactions to react native views at 60fps

When to choose

• you need complex, physical gesture-driven interactions in React Native that feel natural at 60 FPS
• you want a declarative API for spring/friction-based view behavior
• you're building swipeable, snappable UI patterns like drawers or cards

When to avoid

• the project is unmaintained and seeking a new maintainer
• you need a production-stable, actively supported solution
• you're not using React Native or only need simple animations (use the built-in Animated API)
• you're on the New Architecture where this experimental bridge-based approach may not apply
