THIS IS A RELEASE CANDIDATE: this means it's not stable yet, so proceed with care.
Please only upgrade or create new apps with 0.63.0-rc.1 if you'd like to help us test this before the stable release - which would be super useful 🤗
To test it, run:
npx react-native init RN063 --version 0.63.0-rc.1
We're working on the changelog right now and will update this release as soon as the draft is ready. Meanwhile, you may want to look at the most important changes that we have decided to highlight:
React Native follows a monthly release train. Every month, a new branch created off master enters the Release Candidate phase, and the previous Release Candidate branch is released and considered stable.

How to cut a new release branch
Prerequisites
The following are required for the local test suite to run:
Before cutting a release branch, make sure Circle CI system is green.
Before executing the following script, make sure you have:
An Android emulator / Genymotion device running
No packager running in any of the projects
./scripts/test-manual-e2e.sh
This script bundles a react-native package locally and passes it to the react-native cli that creates a test project inside /tmp folder using that version.
After npm install completes, the script prints a set of manual checks you have to do to ensure the release you are preparing is working as expected on both platforms.
