This repository is dedicated to coordinating React Native releases. It contains documentation and information on how React Native is released, which versions are supported, and how to request a new Pick Request.
A pick request is a request for the React Native Release Crew to include a commit into a specific React Native release. As the development of React Native happens on main, you can request for a specific commit or Pull Request to be included in one of the previous version of React Native. We accepts pick requests only for versions of React Native that are currently supported
Please refer to the official Support Policy to know which versions are currently supported.
