A React Native renderer based on Google's Skia graphics engine, enabling cross-platform 2D drawing and graphics rendering in mobile apps. This repository is an early proof-of-concept (the production version lives under Shopify) supporting only Linux and macOS builds.
Use cases
- draw custom graphics in react native apps
- render 2d canvas animations on mobile
- build custom charts and visualizations in react native
- skia-based rendering for react native
- draw shapes and paths with gpu acceleration in react native
When to choose
- you want to experiment with Skia rendering inside React Native on Linux or macOS
- you need low-level 2D graphics primitives beyond what React Native's core views offer
- you want to contribute to or fork an early-stage Skia renderer project
When to avoid
- you need a production-ready solution - use Shopify's react-native-skia instead
- you need iOS or Android support out of the box
- you want a stable, well-documented library with active maintenance
