Excellent work! Did you look at the Expo Modules API? Apparently it has better DX unless you're doing low level C++ stuff, so probably Turbo Modules is a better choice 👍 |
- Add event emitter support for TurboModules (addListener/removeListeners) - Fix iOS getSampleRate method signature for old arch bridge compatibility - Fix Android getSampleRate method signature (remove extra parameter) - Create old arch package (ElementaryTurboPackage) for Android bridge mode - Remove pre-generated codegen folders - now generated at consumer build time - Update iOS header to import spec from Pods headers - Consolidate iOS example to single project with arch toggle - Update Podfile with clear architecture toggle comment - Update C++ standard to c++20 for React Native 0.78 compatibility - Fix ESLint config to use correct package name (@react-native) Both architectures tested and working on iOS and Android. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add missing ESLint dependencies (eslint-plugin-ft-flow, hermes-eslint) - Add metro-react-native-babel-preset for Jest - Fix Jest modulePathIgnorePatterns to exclude example_old - Remove codegen from bob targets (runs at consumer build time) - Update Java version from 11 to 17 for React Native 0.78 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

@tamlyn sorry I could only come back to this now but I revisited the PR with the help of Claude Code and completed the migration, tested for old and new architecture and it all works. |
- Add example-expo/ with Expo SDK 53 and React Native 0.79 - Configure expo-dev-client for development builds - Add metro.config.js with resolveRequest to fix React duplicates in monorepo - Add react-native.config.js for proper codegen integration - Update root package.json with example-expo script - Update .gitignore for Expo generated folders Note: This library requires a development build (`expo run:ios/android`) and cannot run in Expo Go due to native C++ Elementary Audio dependency. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Bonus: added expo example as well |
- Add example-expo/ to eslintIgnore - Add example-expo and example_old to tsconfig.build.json exclude 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'm not going to pretend I understand it, but it builds and it makes a beep so 👍

Why
The new architecture has been out for a while and has many benefits that will help the goals of this project. With this in mind I decided to upgrade the codebase to support the new architecture - linked issue #12
How
The upgrade process of RN projects on the native side is always painful and messy. I am sure there is things I could have done better if I had an idea exactly where to go. The process involved reading the docs for []builder-bob](https://callstack.github.io/react-native-builder-bob/faq#how-does-the-library-get-linked-to-the-example-app-in-the-generated-project), new architecture native modules, using a bit of cursor and claude (which to be honest didn't help much).
Here is what I did:
Elementary.mmto support new architecture apiexample_oldI would like to also test this all works in an expo project as expo is now the default react-native framework.
To-do
