This library allows local notifications and push notifications via the OneSignal service. Because using OneSignal bypasses the normal push notification mechanisms, this library is much easier to use and much smaller. Using this library also provides for a unified notification system if you support more than one application or more than one mobile platform.
Specifically, react-native-push-notification has over 5,600 stars, while the closest competitor (react-native-notifications) has less than half that number. The raw report has more information, but as you can see from just the download statistics below, it is clear that react-native-push-notification is by far the most popular React Native notification library.
On top of that, the way you register a device to receive notifications is vastly different between Android and iOS devices. So, documentation and support become even more important because of the inherent complexity that no library can completely eliminate. The GitHub page for the react-native-push-notification library provides excellent support and documentation.
