Should this library be linked?

See original GitHub issue

There’re ios and android folders in this repo, and this library links automatically if react-native link command is run. However, In my project it isn’t linked, and… it works just fine? At least the subset of features that I use.

Can you describe for what functionality should this library be linked? Are these from the example, maybe?

Yes, I think it should be linked. I’m currently using RN 0.57 and what I’ve done so far is: react-native link react-native-global-props and then I go to Xcode and then:

Click in my project
Go to Build Phases
Click in Link Binary With Libraries
Remove ReactNativeGlobalProps.app and ReactNativeGlobalProps.test (something like that) And build
