Install

The library is still in version 0, be cautious when you upgrade it! 🚧

yarn add react-native-socials

It is also needed to add react-native-video in your project because social components usually contains embeded videos. See react-native-video library for more information about the installation.

Finally, it is recommended to wrap those components into PureComponent because some of them can be costly to rerender (videos for instance).
