Hi!I've been frustrated with the fact that the beautiful NumberFlow library for web (link) is not available on React Native - a platform that I think is much more animation native than the web is. And there are no alternatives of the same quality available. So I reimplemented it myself, basically from the ground up.Introducing Number Flow React Native.I am aiming for this to be the best number animation library for React Native.- Beautiful animation easing directly inspired by web NumberFlow - Supporting both Native and Skia versions - Full i18n support for locales, things like compact or scientific notations, etc. - TimeFlow component for timers and counters - Custom digit bounding for things like binary - Supporting 37 different numeral systems such as Arabic, Thai, and many others - A dedicated, shared worklet mode for as much FPS as possible perfect for sliders or gestures for example - Built on top of React Native Reanimated v3+ - Also supports web via Expo WebPlease check out the docs: https://number-flow-react-native.awingender.com/docs And star it on GitHub if you like it: https://github.com/Rednegniw/number-flow-react-nativeLet me know what you think!

Could you build this?
Yes Porting rolling number transitions to React Native using react-native-reanimated and Intl formatting is a focused UI component library task well within the scope of AI-assisted coding.
