📆 [Sticky] UI Kitten 4.2 Discussion & Roadmap

This is a communication-open issue indicating version 4.2 roadmap. Our plan is:

Features

• Popover auto-placement #258
• RTL support #561

UI components

• Select #523
• Calendar #520
• Drawer #521
• Activity Indicator #519

Modules

In version 4.2, we’re going to become a modular framework. This means it will help you with creating apps with more flexibility allowing to install the only things you need! Besides the main package of UI components, we also going to introduce following easily adaptable to UI Kitten packages:

• Eva Icons #522. A pack of more than 480 beautifully crafted Open Source icons.
• Moment and date-fns adapters for Calendar component. By default, a calendar component will work with a native date object, but we also going to introduce additional packages that will allow you to work with moment or date-fns (if you’re looking for easier formatting)
• Template App Module #553. Supporting module to make a start as easy as react-native init --template ui-kitten

Documentation

• Add more ready-to-go examples in the component Overview section #442

Feel free to add your proposals on what we need to include!
