TypeScript Support

See original GitHub issue

Feature Request

Introducing typescript support for the repo.

Why it is needed

With the increasing popularity in typescript, it would be nice to have typescript support or at least a type declaration for the repo. Currently, this repo does not have a typescript definition in @types repo. There are declaration files in @types/react-native that can be extracted to this repository.

Possible implementation

I believe there are two ways to approach this.

create an index.d.ts file, extracted from @types/react-native
convert each js files into .tsx and rewrite the modules in typescript

Any thoughts?
