Description

@pedrol2b

Hi everyone! πŸ‘‹

First of all, thank you to every single person who has downloaded, starred, watched, or contributed to this package. Even while I was away from the project for personal reasons, the community kept it alive β€” and I truly appreciate it. ❀️

I’m happy to announce that active development is officially resuming, and the repository will start receiving updates again over the next few days and weeks.


πŸš€ What’s Coming

The current release is v0.1.0, and the next update will be a major milestone: v1.0.0.
This update will include:

βœ… Improved Code Quality

  • Refactoring and cleanup across the entire codebase

  • More stable internal architecture

  • Better performance and maintainability

βœ… Missing ML Kit Features

Several ML Kit features were not yet implemented β€” these will now be added, including APIs shown in the compatibility table such as:

  • Face detection

  • Object detection + tracking

  • Pose detection

  • Digital ink recognition

  • …and more, depending on platform support

πŸ“± Full iOS / Swift Support

The initial release was essentially Android-only.
v1.0.0 will introduce a complete iOS implementation, including:

  • Swift port of the module

  • Updated ML Kit iOS pods

  • Improved parity between iOS and Android

πŸ”§ Updated ML Kit Dependencies

All ML Kit libraries will be updated to their latest versions, ensuring:

  • Better performance

  • Newer APIs

  • Fixes and stability improvements

πŸ“Š Compatibility Matrix

This package depends on:

Package Version
react-native-vision-camera >= 4.0.1
react-native-worklets-core >= 1.2.0

My goal is to:

  • Support the latest versions of both

  • AND build a compatibility matrix so users can combine different versions safely, as long as they're compatible with each other.

This should provide more flexibility for projects with existing constraints.


πŸŽ„ Happy Holidays!

Since we’re close to Christmas β€”
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2026! πŸŽ…πŸŽβœ¨
Wishing you all an incredible year filled with health, success, and new opportunities.

Thank you again for keeping this project alive.
Exciting updates are on the way β€” stay tuned!

    Quick update: along with the new features, there were several additions, code quality improvements, and bundle size optimizations. You can now choose which ML Kit pod to install, instead of installing all ML Kit APIs just to use text recognition.

    More updates coming soon β€” stay tuned πŸš€
