MMKV VS react-native-vision-camera

react-native-mmkv is a wrapper around MMKV that allows you to easily implement secure storage in your app. It is arguably the fastest key-value storage for React Native apps

This library uses MMKV key-value storage and JSI to communicate between the JS side and the native side very quickly and synchronously. It is a suitable replacement for slow AsyncStorage. Follow this guide to migrate from AsyncStorage and get 30x faster on read and write operations in your app.

For those unfamiliar with MMKV, here's a link to their GitHub - https://github.com/Tencent/MMKV. Used in many mobile applications, such as Discord.

SWR library works great with React Native. By default, SWR library uses global cache store, but you will lose your cache when you reload your app. Here is a super-easy way to sync SWR cache with MMKV.

This library aims to provide a fast & reliable solution for you data storage needs in react-native apps. It uses MMKV by Tencent under the hood on Android and iOS both that is used by their WeChat app(more than 1 Billion users). Unlike other storage solutions for React Native, this library lets you store any kind of data type, in any number of database instances, with or without encryption in a very fast and efficient way. Read about it on this blog post I wrote on dev.to

Camera and Image Captioning: For taking pictures we will use react-native-vision-camera and for generating captions from the images, react-native-quick-tflite.

> One of the big "aha" moments I had was a couple years ago when I was trying out Stripe's Identity product, which lets you take a selfie and a picture of your ID for identity verification purposes. It's pretty amazing how Stripe was able to do the full image analysis (i.e. edge detection when you take a picture of your ID) solely with browser APIs.

Do you have any details on that Stripe app? I've found the browser camera handling lacking on mobile if you want to overlay it with a "position the subject here" rectangle, or display instructions alongside, or detect QR codes as well as other subjects. I'd like this to be an out-of-date view. I've been considering React Native for the next version, using https://github.com/mrousavy/react-native-vision-camera as it seems much more feature complete.

You can use react-native-vision-camera and a frame processor that uses some kind of OCR to get the number plates.

This is a demonstration of what VisionCamera V3 is capable of - I built a small plugin to load any TensorFlow Model (.tflite) from resources and run it on every Camera Frame. This is going to be a game-changer, since the developer no longer needs to write native code for such complex tasks - it only takes a few lines of JavaScript to spin up a Camera, do real-time processing with a TensorFlow model, and draw anything to the Frame. Magic!

I finally got react-native-vision-camera and vision-camera-face-detector working yesterday by using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). On windows itself it just doesn't work for me (https://github.com/mrousavy/react-native-vision-camera/issues/1474)

I'm the author of react-native-vision-camera, a library that exposes platform native Camera features to React Native.

Here’s an example from react-native-vision https://github.com/mrousavy/react-native-vision-camera/blob/main/example/src/views/StatusBarBlurBackground.tsx
