Looking for community contributors #84

Hi everyone,

More than a year ago, we have created this component as some of our webview pages (mostly some charts) have performance issues with UIWebView. Even though we don't have lots of interactions between webview and react native code, we have implemented the "bridge" functionality. As time goes by it's got much more feature requests and PRs. However, since we do not use them in our own code base, this results in following problems:

  1. We cannot (battle) test those PRs in our own test infrastructure, and we are not comfortable merging them without testing.
  2. Since we don't use those features, dealing with PRs has low priorities, resulting in a long backlog.

Thus we are looking to add more contributors to this project to move it forward. If you are interested, please do let us know in this thread. We will add you as the collaborators first. And then we can figure out a better governance of this project.

Might I suggest exploring https://github.com/CRAlpha/react-native-wkwebview/issues/82 as an end-game for this project? It's clear that Apple is pushing WKWebView as the defacto replacement for UIWebView and the RN core maintainers have stated that it's time to add a WKWebView to RN core. It might be a better use of everyone's time to start the PR process over there and get it into core ASAP where it will get a lot more attention.

I encountered some issues with UIWebView (internal RN WebView implementation), so I replaced it in our project with WKWebView (react-native-wkwebview-reborn) which solved our issues :tada:.

I'm a React Native Core Contributor, and I'm entirely in favor of WKWebView replacing UIWebView in RN core, feel free to add me as a collaborator, and we may finally leverage this repo into RN core.
