Overview

The react-native-native-log library provides a seamless way to capture and display logs within React Native applications, utilizing native logging functions specific to each platform. By leveraging NSLog() on iOS and Log.i() on Android, it enables developers to easily access logs that are typically difficult to view in standard console outputs. This functionality can be particularly beneficial in end-to-end UI testing environments, where tracking logs can enhance troubleshooting and debugging processes.

This library is designed to integrate smoothly into your React Native project, making it simple for developers to ensure that native logs are accessible and actionable. Whether you're running an app for iOS or Android, getting started is straightforward with clear installation instructions and examples.
