Overview:

The React Native NodeRun is a deprecated library that allowed developers to run a real Node.js process in the background behind a React Native app. It facilitated activities such as running HTTP servers in Android, using Node streams, interfacing with the filesystem, and offloading heavy processing from the JS thread in React Native. However, developers are encouraged to use the more updated and maintained Node.js Mobile by Janea Systems, which also supports iOS.

Features:

Run HTTP servers in Android
Use Node streams
Interface with the filesystem
Offload heavy processing out of the JS thread in React Native
Equivalent functionality to Node.js on desktop
