Description
Activity
Thank you for opening a new React Native Pick Request.
These are the criteria we follow when accepting or rejecting a code change into a React Native release branch (source).
If your Pick Request does not satisfy the criteria below, please close it as it will not be considered.
✅ Which Pick Requests we accept
- ✅ Fixes for regressions to core APIs. Examples:
- A core component is behaving differently between versions 0.X and 0.X-1
- The
TurboModule.getEnforcingfunction is throwing an unexpected assertion error.
- ✅ Fixes to bugs in core React Native. Examples:
- Breakpoints in React Native DevTools not working correctly in the debugger
- Fast Refresh not working as expected
- Metro bundler not starting properly or ignoring the configuration file
- Buttons that are not clickable
- ✅ Fixes to APIs used by third-party libraries and out-of-tree platforms. Examples:
- An API used by
react-native-macosis not behaving as expected or is regressing
- An API used by
- ✅ Bump of patch version of dependencies. Example:
- Bump Gradle from 8.11.0 to 8.11.1
- ✅ Fixes for low/high severity security vulnerabilities. Example:
- Bump Gradle from 8.11.0 to 8.12.0 if there is a security vulnerability in 8.11 and no 8.11.x version contains the same fix.
- ✅ Fixes and reverts of accidental breaking changes. Example:
- Reverting or fix-forwarding a Kotlin migration of a file (e.g.
ReactRootView.java) if it is causing a breaking change for the React Native ecosystem.
- Reverting or fix-forwarding a Kotlin migration of a file (e.g.
- ✅ Performance improvements. Examples:
- Fixing unnecessary re-renders in FlatList.
- ✅ Any Pick Request if the release is still in RC0 (after RC1, the previously listed criteria apply)
❌ Which Pick Requests we don't accept
- ❌ Any Pick Request that introduces a breaking change after RC1. Example:
- A bugfix that contains a refactoring, resulting in changes to the public API of a class
- ❌ Any Pick Request that introduces a new feature after RC1. Example:
- A commit that introduces a new API or a specific feature for a component.
- ❌ Bump of major or minor version of dependencies. Examples:
- Bump Gradle from 8.11.0 to 8.12.0
- Bump Gradle from 8.11.0 to 9.0.0
- ❌ Bump of a dependency to a pre-release version. Example:
- Bump Gradle from 8.11.0 to 8.11.1-beta.1
- ❌ Any Pick Request that introduces changes to the React Native testing infrastructure after RC1. Examples:
- Changes to GitHub Actions workflows to optimize them, even if they are on main.
- Changes to the logic used to publish packages to NPM or Maven Central
- ❌ Pick Request composed of multiple commits that have several merge conflicts.
- If your Pick Request is too complex to apply to the release branch, it will be rejected.
- ❌ Any non-critical improvement that landed on main.
- These will generally ship in the following version unless they fit one of the criteria above.
- ❌ Any Pick Request considered a "nice to have".
- Even one-line changes carry a risk of destabilizing and further delaying the release.
ℹ️ What makes for a good Pick Request
In order for your Pick Request to be considered, please do the following:
- ℹ️ Limit your Pick Request to one commit from
main, or one PR against the release branch. - ℹ️ Include a clear explanation of why your Pick Request should be considered, ideally referencing one of the criteria above.
- ℹ️ Target only one minor version of React Native (e.g. [0.76]). To have your Pick Request applied to more versions, please open separate Pick Requests.
