Other hooks to make

Description of the feature

A list of all Expo features that can be poured into a hook format.

Motivation

I want to implement as many useful hooks as possible, to make the library/repo complete.

Additional context

Best way to get started on the hooks is copying packages/permissions to packages/<module> and add all necessary files.

Name should match the Expo module’s name, e.g. expo-permissions -> packages/permissions.

Application

• useApplicationInstallTime(): [date]
• useApplicationAndroidInstallReferrer(): [partialUrl]
• useApplicationAndroidLastUpdateTime(): [partialUrl]
• useApplicationIosIdForVendor(options): [id, getId]

Asset

• useLoadAssets({ fonts, images, ... }) or useAssets (source: rockstar wcandillon) Opened PR in Expo itself.
• useLoadFonts(fonts) or useFonts (source: awesome sebinsua)

Battery

• useBattery(): PowerState
• useBatteryLevel({ listen }): [batteryLevel, isAvailable]
• useBatteryState({ listen }): [batteryState, isAvailable]
• useBatteryIsLowPowerMode({ listen }): [isLowPowerMode]

Brightness

• useBrightness(Options): [brightness, set, get]
• useSystemBrightness(Options): [brightness, set, get]
• useSystemBrightnessMode(Options): [mode, set, get]

todo: help update the docs with the new ...Async methods Right now, the brightness mode isn’t documented at all. We need to fix that 😁. There also might be a bug with the brightness amount on Android (OnePlus 6), it’s returning 4.011 quite often for the brightness. This should be 0..1.

Maybe some kind of useFonts which wraps expo-font?

hasAction internally calls isAvailableAsync if I’m right. So with this it will already skip for web.
