react-native-vector-drawable

Android vector drawables in React Native.

An alternative to react-native-svg with 5x faster renders, lighter bundle and built in dark mode support.

Installation

yarn add @klarna/react-native-vector-drawable

Fabric installation

This library supports React Native New Architecture (aka Fabric). To use this library with your Fabric application, you have to:

1. Add latest @klarna/react-native-vector-drawable
2. on iOS:
   • Install pods using RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 pod install – this is the same command you run to prepare a Fabric build but you also need to run it after a new native library gets added.
3. on Android:
   • There are no additional steps required so long you app is configured to build with Fabric – this is typically configured by setting newArchEnabled=true in gradle.properties file in your project.

const Component = () => (
