Timeline to official New Architecture support? #4454

Open micahlt opened 1 month ago

Is there any sort of timeline towards official New Architecture support (including bridgeless mode and the Fabric renderer)? The React Native team has been pushing hard for packages adjacent to the RN ecosystem to start building in support for the New Architecture, especially with the release of 0.74.x. Apps built with Paper will run in New Architecture projects without any changes, but there are a significant number of small bugs caused by the upgrade (for example: #4445, #4399, #4127). Most of these changes seem to be related to how Paper handles user input. I plan on doing some investigating on my own, but considering the fact that the New Architecture is where the RN ecosystem is moving and that it offers significant performance improvements it would be great to know where the Callstack team stands.

Hey, Thanks a lot for bringing this up and for your interest in the New Architecture. Right now, we're in the process of upgrading react-native-paper to version 0.73. Once that's done, our next step is to work on full compatibility with the New Architecture. We know it's important and are on it. Appreciate your patience and support!
