Nitro Views!!!! 🥳

This release includes first-class support for creating React Native views with Nitro. See the View components docs for more information.

export interface CameraProps {
  enableFlash: boolean
}
export interface CameraMethods {
  takePhoto(): Promise<Image>
}

export type CameraView = HybridView<CameraProps, CameraMethods>

..each HybridView is also a HybridObject, so you can access props and methods on it and pass it around like any other HybridObject - you can even pass Swift/Kotlin views to C++ and use them without bridging between languages yourself!!
Also, they're faster.

Note: Nitro Views require react-native 0.78.0+, and only work on the new architecture.
