react-native-gcm-android
A React Native module for Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) push notifications on Android.
What is react-native-gcm-android?
react-native-gcm-android is a React Native library that provides Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) push notification functionality for Android applications. It bridges React Native JavaScript code with native Android GCM services, enabling developers to send and receive push notifications in cross-platform mobile apps. The library handles device registration, notification events, and foreground/background state detection.
React Native developers building Android applications that require reliable push notifications via Google Cloud Messaging. It is specifically for teams integrating GCM into their React Native projects without managing complex native Android setups.
Developers choose this library for its straightforward, event-driven interface that abstracts native Android GCM complexity while maintaining flexibility for custom notification handling. It integrates seamlessly with react-native-system-notification for displaying local notifications when the app is inactive.
