I guess it wouldn't be a first https://github.com/flipkart-incubator/proteus , but
Jetpack Compost has always been the future of Android development. This is the daily 2 minute reminder that all crashes are caused by RecyclerView. Creating a performant list has always been difficult. Optimization is overengineering. Logging is debugging. Lag is performance. LazyColumn. LazyColumn.

Just a little correction, none of facebook or instagram mobile app use react native. On android, facebook, messenger, and instagram use litho library (which facebook team has also developed)

It seems unlikely that FB would give up on Litho, which is extremely performance focused, to use react native instead. Not for their bread & butter flagship news feed anyway https://fblitho.com/

Facebook's internal android repository is still mostly Java, but there is a large push to switch to Kotlin, and Kotlin's internal support has grown dramatically over the last couple of years. Coroutines have recently been allowed (although I'm personally not a fan of that decision). Flow/Compose are not necessary as we have internal tools that do similar things (looking at you, Litho).
