Jetifier is an npm package used to convert Android support libraries in a project to their corresponding AndroidX libraries. This is particularly useful when migrating a React Native project or any Android project that uses older support libraries to the newer AndroidX libraries.
Convert Android support libraries to AndroidX
This command converts all the Android support libraries in your project to their corresponding AndroidX libraries. It scans through your project's node_modules and updates the necessary files.
npx jetifyRevert AndroidX libraries back to support libraries
This command reverts the changes made by Jetifier, converting AndroidX libraries back to the original Android support libraries. This can be useful if you need to roll back the migration for any reason.

npm install jetifier (or maybe npm install -g jetifier to make it globally available)npx jetifier-standalone <your arguments here> (use npx jetifier-standalone -h for help)I have not altered the jetifier-standalone distribution in any way.
Other than the npm-specific instructions, consult the official jetifier documentation
The jetifier-standalone utility is from Google, and they currently have it as beta
In this package I preserve their versioning, and just append one more pre-release semantic version so that I have space to publish new versions of the package even if they never release another one.
In general the entire version prior to the last '.1' (or similar) is the upstream version.
To be precise if the version is 1.0.0-beta04.3, the upstream version is 1.0.0beta04, and it is my third re-package of that version.
Please feel free to pull requests or log issues, especially to update versions if I somehow fail to notice an update. Thanks!
v1.0.0-beta04.2
