React Native Gesture Handler (RNGH) 2.0 is a library designed to enhance user interaction in React Native apps by providing efficient and responsive gesture handling through a more declarative API. The library allows developers to integrate native gesture recognition for Android and iOS, offering gestures like pan, tap, pinch, and long-press, which run on the UI thread for improved performance over the built-in Gesture Responder System. RNGH 2.0 simplifies the process of gesture handling by enabling developers to wrap applications with the GestureHandlerRootView and use the GestureDetector component to detect gestures, reducing the need for multiple gesture handler components. The integration with React Native Reanimated further enhances animation fluidity by utilizing shared values, providing a seamless experience. The article also covers practical implementations of gestures using RNGH 2.0 in a React Native app created with Expo and TypeScript, detailing the setup of gestures like swipeable components and pinch/zoom interactions.
