## What it is
A React Native library providing a Network Info API for Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Web. It lets apps query connection type and quality and subscribe to network state changes.

## Use cases
- detect internet connectivity in a react native app
- get current network connection type wifi or cellular
- show offline banner when device loses connection
- monitor network quality in react native
- check if device is on metered connection
- subscribe to network state change events

## When to choose
- you build a React Native app and need network status across Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Web
- you want a community-maintained replacement for the removed NetInfo core module

## When to avoid
- you need detailed native network diagnostics or packet-level info
- your web targets lack the experimental Network Information API and you need full fidelity there
