React Native Audio Toolkit
React Native Audio Toolkit is a cross-platform mobile library and toolkit for recording, playing, and streaming audio files within cross-platform mobile applications. It provides a unified JavaScript interface that abstracts the distinct native audio implementations of different mobile operating systems behind a common set of APIs.
The library supports loading and playing local or remote audio files with controls for playback speed, volume, looping, seeking, and hardware looping. It also captures microphone input into audio files with configurable bitrate, channels, sample rate, format, and metering events. Users can package audio files directly inside the application installation bundle so media is immediately available offline upon installation.
Communication across the runtime boundary relies on asynchronous method invocation flowing over the standard message bridge, while native status updates and metering ticks transmit back to the JavaScript runtime through asynchronous event listeners and event emitters.
Features
