  • Tesla is looking for React Native engineers (Chapter II)
    2 projects | /r/reactnative | 18 May 2022
    Unsolicited Tesla React Native dev here based in Seattle. I work with u/scarlac on https://github.com/teslamotors/react-native-camera-kit. Tesla is solving some really cool problems in the mobile app space with RN at the moment. I've always felt like work / life balance was respected on my teams and it's super fun to work on such a compelling mission.
  • Qr code scanner for react native CLI?
    3 projects | /r/reactnative | 20 Jan 2022
    Hi everyone,it seems the most used one, react-native-qrcode-scanner, depends on a deprecated package, react-native-camera. Should i still install it and use this(is it even possible to install a deprecated npm package)?In the meanwhile i tried an other one, react-native-camera-kit, but the documentation seems lacking and incorrect. Am i already out of options here?should i just install react native camera even if deprecated?
  • Mocking Camera functionality on iOS simulator with React Native
    2 projects | /r/reactnative | 15 Jul 2021
    Hi, I'm not sure how people are dealing with Camera not working on iOS simulator(I know there is a library) but recently I'm managing it by wrapping the camera component and fetching a placeholder image instead. Let me leave the code for anyone interested in it.
  • React native QR code scan

  • The best react-native camera library is coming.
    1 project | /r/reactnative | 22 Jan 2021
    https://github.com/teslamotors/react-native-camera-kit#qr--barcode-scanning-support - It's supported, and has been for years. We actively chose not to integrate MLKit for now because of the extra setup required for people. We found it cumbersome ourselves. We don't think it's worth the overhead and prefer to rely on iOS's own accelerated features.
