React Native Biometrics
React Native module for iOS and Android biometrics
Overview:
React Native Biometrics is a bridge to native iOS and Android keystore management, allowing users to create public-private key pairs stored in native keystores and protected by biometric authentication. These keys can be accessed after authentication to create a cryptographic signature.
Features:
- Simple Bridge: Connects React Native to native iOS and Android keystore management.
- Biometric Authentication: Provides security through biometric authentication for stored key pairs.
- Cryptographic Signature: Allows the creation of a cryptographic signature using the stored keys.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Compatible with React Native versions >= 0.60 for iOS and Android.
Summary:
React Native Biometrics provides a straightforward solution for managing biometric authentication, key pairs, and cryptographic signatures on both iOS and Android platforms. By integrating this package, developers can enhance the security of their applications and streamline the authentication process for users.
- React Native
React Native is a framework for building mobile applications using React and JavaScript. It enables developers to write once and deploy to multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, and the web, while providing a native app-like experience to users.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
