Roadmap

• Setup a build in CI
• Create a StaticOptions component that combines all options
• Support showing loader as right button (there's an issue)
• Support easier ways to set app default styles for common behaviors

Know Issues

• dismissing a pageSheet modal on iOS doesn't trigger didAppear event which breaks our push functionality.
• After setting a custom right button (loader) - mergeOptions stops working completely
• StatusBar update doesn't work on iOS
• iOS - TopBar withBorder doesn't work when using update
