A React Native library that runs a real Node.js process in the background behind an Android app, letting developers execute Node.js code such as HTTP servers and streams alongside their React Native app. It is deprecated in favor of Node.js Mobile and is no longer maintained.

Use cases

  • run a node http server inside a react native app
  • offload heavy processing from the react native js thread
  • use node streams and filesystem access on android
  • run background node.js scripts behind a mobile app
  • embed a node.js process in an android application

When to choose

  • you maintain a legacy Android-only React Native app already using this library
  • you need a quick experimental way to run Node.js on Android in a React Native project

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - use Node.js Mobile instead
  • you need iOS support
  • you need an actively maintained library
