CleanShot.2024-09-17.at.11.51.20.mp4

Note

Please upgrade your Cocoapods version to at least 1.15, without it you may face issues with Heremes linking.

Deprecations

Caution

This release deprecates the automatic cursor: pointer style on Touchable components. You should now use cursor: pointer in your stylesheets to enable the pointer cursor. This will be removed in the next major release.

Release 0.75.0

Hey 👋

This is the first React Native visionOS 0.75 release!

There are a few changes:

• Template is now living outside of @callstack/react-native-visionos, now it's here.
• Init command is now different. This change is reflected in the docs.
• We now use a prebuilt version of Hermes 🎉

Get started

To start building with React Native visionOS use this command:

npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init <YourAppName> --template @callstack/visionos-template@latest

Known Issues

Prebuilt Hermes is missing x86 slice which prevents uploading the app to the AppStore using prebuilt Hermes. Fix should come with upcoming releases.

Workaround:

Reinstall pods with RCT_BUILD_HERMES_FROM_SOURCE flag.

RCT_BUILD_HERMES_FROM_SOURCE=true bundle exec pod install

Happy hacking!
