The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see
Understanding the Android Support Library.

- Loader (Utility)
library to load data for your UI that survives configuration changes.
- Recyclerview (Utility)
display large sets of data in your UI while minimizing memory usage.
- Android Activity Saved State (Utility)

- Vectordrawable (UI Component)
AndroidX library to render vector graphics.
- Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
- AndroidX Widget ViewPager2 (UI Component)
replaces AndroidX ViewPager, addressing most of its predecessor’s pain-points, including right-to-left layout support, vertical orientation, modifiable Fragment collections, etc.
- react-native-linear-gradient (UI Component)

- Fresco (Utility)
library for managing images and the memory they use.
- Hermes JS Engine (Utility)
a JavaScript engine optimized for fast start up of React Native apps on Android.
- React Native (Development Framework)

native code loader for Android.
- Google Mobile Services© (Development Framework)
Google Mobile Services in terms of the Android library refers to
Google Play Services, a proprietary background service and API package for Android devices which is
not part of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). The library does not contain those services (i.e. it usually requires the Google Framework, often referred to as „GApps“, being installed on the device), but allows an app to communicate with them. Be aware this usually goes along with transferring at least parts of your personal data to the Google network.

- React Native Gesture Handler (Utility)

- React Native Reanimated (Utility)
provides a more comprehensive, low level abstraction for the Animated library API to be built on top of and hence allow for much greater flexibility especially when it comes to gesture based interactions.
- react-native-screens (Utility)
native navigation primitives for your React Native app.
- react-native-safe-area-context (Utility)
library to handle safe area insets.
- react-native-localize (Utility)
a toolbox for React Native app localization.
- JavaX Dependency Injection (Utility)
specifies a means for obtaining objects in such a way as to maximize reusability, testability and maintainability compared to traditional approaches such as constructors, factories, and service locators (e.g., JNDI). This process, known as dependency injection, is beneficial to most nontrivial applications.
- React Native MaskedView (UI Component)
put almost anything behind the mask.
