## [v0.41.0](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/v0.41.0) on GitHub ([npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native))

---

This is 0.41.0 release, referred to as "January 2017" according to the new release schedule.

## New features

### Android: Nodes

> This feature is currently experimental. You can turn it on by applying [this](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/master/ReactAndroid/src/main/java/com/facebook/react/flat#how-to-test) in your `ReactNativeHost` subclass.

Nodes is an experimental, alternate version of UIImplementation for ReactNative on Android. It has two main advantages over the existing UIImplementation:

- Support for `overflow:visible` on Android.
- More efficient generation of view hierarchies.

The intention is to ultimately replace the existing UIImplementation on Android with Nodes (after all the issues are ironed out).

Feature development and bug-fixes related to `Nodes` are listed below in a separate section for better clarity.

Check the [readme](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/master/ReactAndroid/src/main/java/com/facebook/react/flat) for more details.

## Breaking changes

### Android: Change ReactNativeHost getUseDeveloperSupport to public

> [f3c8158](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/f3c8158773edf418833ff0032414433edbc6cd62) - [@jpshelley](https://github.com/jpshelley)

This changes the visibility of `getUseDeveloperSupport` from `protected` to `public`. In order to upgrade, you should replace the following in your `MainApplication.java`:

protected boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {

with

public boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {

### Android: ReactClippingViewGroup is moved to another package

> [57ebb98](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/57ebb98d1900bdacd94521ae99fd45cb1d22ec8e) - [@astreet](https://github.com/astreet)

Developers using `ReactClippingViewGroup` may need to update their imports from:

import com.facebook.react.views.view.ReactClippingViewGroupHelper;

to

import com.facebook.react.uimanager.ReactClippingViewGroupHelper;

React Native January 2017 (0.41.0) released


Both `React Native`'s internal `Navigation` API and community based solutions have gone through huge criticism and rewrites.  
But once again, the community didn't settle, they wanted to provide a Navigation with seamless experiences on all platforms and performances out of the box.  
So, there you go, [Adam Miskiewicz](https://twitter.com/skevy), [Satyajit Sahoo](https://twitter.com/satya164), [Mateusz Zatorski](https://twitter.com/matzatorski), [Mike Grabowski](https://twitter.com/grabbou), [Linton Ye](https://twitter.com/lintonye) are tackling this goal together.  
But the list is expected to grow quickly, so you better check the [contributors](https://github.com/react-community/react-navigation/graphs/contributors)' list.

## [react-navigation](https://github.com/react-community/react-navigation) on GitHub

> Navigation views that deliver 60fps animations, and utilize native components to deliver a great look and feel.

React Navigation:  Learn once, navigate anywhere


By now you should be acquainted to `React Native`'s motto: "Learn once, Write anywhere".  
While this is true, it's not always easy to properly setup a project that is ready to target multiple platforms at once.

[Amogh Banta](https://twitter.com/amoghbanta) is taking on this mission for us, with his `ReactNativeEverywhere` starter kit.

# [ReactNativeEverywhere](https://github.com/amoghbanta/reactNativeEverywhere) on GitHub

![](https://s28.postimg.org/pwoavwifx/woue.jpg)

> ##### This project is an attempt to:
>
> - Target multiple platforms(Android, iOS, web, windows and macOS) with react native' APIs.
> - Follow best practices while doing the above.
> - Cut out the time and effort it takes to setup the project(based on create-react-app).
> - Achieve 'Write once use everywhere' with react-native(though react strictly says 'Learn once use anywhere').


React Native Everywhere: a starter kit to target multiple platforms


## [v0.40.0](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/v0.40.0) on GitHub ([npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native))

---

This is the first release with the new monthly cadence, so `0.40` is known as `December 2016`. The next version will be `0.41 - January 2017`, and will be released at the end of the month.

## Breaking Changes

### iOS native headers moved

> This change affects all native modules and application code on iOS that refer to react native `.h` files

After [e1577df](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/e1577df1fd70049ce7f288f91f6e2b18d512ff4d), Native code on iOS must refer to headers out of the react namespace. Previously the following would work:

#import "RCTUtils.h"

But now all headers have been moved:

#import <React/RCTUtils.h\>

This means that all iOS native libraries need a major version bump for RN 0.40. We attempt to minimize changes of this magnitude, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

### require('image!...') no longer supported

Support for `require('image!…')`, which has been deprecated for a long time, is now removed. If you are still loading images that way in your apps, make sure to check [the documentation](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/images.html) for alternatives.

### getTransformModuleOptions is removed

If you were having custom `rn-cli.config.js` in your app and for some reason, using `getTransformModuleOptions`, make sure to check [@davidaurelio](https://github.com/davidaurelio) commit [ca58e0a](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/ca58e0af82797042fabad3873478bc4a9feb7281) for details on the changes.

React Native v0.39.0-rc.0 released


UI `Animations` are somehow scary, do we all agree on this?  
Either you agree or not, luckily for all of us, there's people like [Jake Murzy](https://twitter.com/jmurzy) that take the time to not only write awesome libraries showing how to implement them, but more extraordinarily, writing amazing detailed insights about them.  
So, thank you Jake!
