About This Article

Problem

React Native developers have to write custom bridges to native SDKs because official integrations don't exist. This makes it harder for SDK providers to reach developers in this growing ecosystem.

Solution

Callstack suggests building official React Native SDK wrappers with pre-built bridges and standard integration patterns. This way developers can use them right away instead of building custom solutions.

Impact

Companies like Klarna, Paytm, and Razorpay have released official React Native wrappers and seen better results. Their customers get ready-to-use integrations instead of needing custom development, which improves the developer experience and speeds up sales.
