Upgrade `react-native` to 0.76 #48911

Open AndrewGable opened 2 months ago

AndrewGable commented 2 months ago

Problem

The new react-native version 0.76 just was released 🎉

https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/v0.76.0-rc.0

It contains lots of bug fixes, improvements, and upgrades to the fundamental framework we are using.

Solution

Upgrade to react-native 0.76

cc @staszekscp @j-piasecki @WoLewicki - Per discussion in Slack, can you comment here so I can assign you to work on this? Thanks!

Sure! We’ll take care of that!

I'll be helping with the upgrade

j-piasecki commented 2 months ago

I've asked people from Expo and SDK 51 is not compatible with RN 0.76 (it won't compile due to underlying changes). Given that, I believe it may be best to wait for the first beta release of SDK 52 (targeted at the first half of October) before we start the upgrade process. This way we don't have to hack around making SDK 51 compile on the current React Native version, which would have to be discarded anyway. What do you think?
