The React Native team has grown from around 10 to around 20 engineers in the past year and has strong representation in Menlo Park, London, and New York.
The main focus areas of the React Native team since the Ads Manager launch have been the following:
Improving performance such as startup time, responsiveness, and scroll performance.
Integrating with UI and infrastructure of the main Facebook app, both on iOS and Android
Building performance tooling such as CPU and memory profilers
Building new features needed by product teams at Facebook
Supporting product teams by answering questions and fixing bugs quickly
Developer experience, such as integrating with internal developer tools and build systems
Only IOS and Android are officially supported by Facebook.
Outside projects are in developement for using React-Native to build:
Windows Universal App
Mac OSX desktop App
Ubuntu desktop App
Apple TV App
Samsung Tizen SmartTV / SmartWatch App

Good benefits of Javascript is their asychronous natures
React-Native use Javascript asynchronous call via the bridge to invokes the host native platform’s underlying APIs and UI elements
Since, React-Native dont run on main UI thread, it can asynchronous call without impact user’s experience.
