Integrate the Bridgefy SDK into your Android and iOS app to reach the 3.5 billion people that don’t always have access to an Internet connection, and watch engagement and revenue grow!

All the connections are handled seamlessly by the SDK to create a mesh network. The size of this network depends on the number of devices connected and the environment as a variable factor, allowing you to join nodes in the same network or nodes in different networks.
To utilize this SDK in a React Native application, you'll need to configure permissions for each individual platform (iOS and Android) first. You can read more about each platform's requirements below:
$ npm i bridgefy-react-native
# --- or ---
$ yarn install bridgefy-react-native
The initialize method initializes the Bridgefy SDK with the given API key and propagation profile. We will configure event listeners later.
import { Bridgefy, BridgefyPropagationProfile } from 'bridgefy-react-native';
const bridgefy = new Bridgefy();
export default function App() {
React.useEffect(() => {
bridgefy
.initialize(
'your-api-key-here', // UUID - The license key registered on the Bridgefy developer site.
false, // The logging priority for SDK operations.
)
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
});
Once initialized, you can call start to begin using the SDK.
bridgefy.start(
userId?, // UUID? (optional) - The ID used to identify the user in the Bridgefy network.If null is passed, the SDK will assign an autogenerated ID.
propagationProfile, // PropagationProfile (optional, default: PropagationProfile.Standard) - A profile that defines a series of properties and rules for the propagation of messages.
