A Worklet runner for React Native.

  'worklet'
  return Math.random()

Credits

• Credits go to Christian Falch for building the initial version of this library. You're amazing! 🤩
• Credits go to Software Mansion for introducing the concept of Worklets in Reanimated v2. This library is inspired by Reanimated v2 with a few structural changes to the Worklets architecture to make it more flexible for different use-cases, such as integrating it with other C++ libraries like VisionCamera and WishList.
