Update the React Native tutorial for versions of @solana/web3.js >=1.41.7 #433

Open steveluscher opened 2 years ago

steveluscher commented 2 years ago

Preamble

Versions of @solana/web3.js after 1.41.6 now require React Native >=0.70 and the Hermes JavaScript engine because of a hard pivot to relying on libraries built on the assumption that the runtime supports JavaScript BigInt.

Proposed solution

The task is to update the Cookbook to be based on installing React Native 0.70 and using the Hermes JavaScript engine.
