# React Native Notifications ## **Priority: P1 (OPERATIONAL)** Push notifications using React Native Firebase or Expo Notifications. ## Guidelines - **Library**: Choose `@react-native-firebase/messaging` (Bare) or `expo-notifications` (Managed). - **Setup**: Configure Platform channels (Android) and APNs (iOS). - **Lifecycle**: Handle Foreground (`onMessage`), Background (`onNotificationOpenedApp`), and Quit (`getInitialNotification`) states. - **Permissions**: Prime users before requesting system authorization. See [implementation examples](references/implementation.md) for a complete FCM handler setup with permission request and lifecycle handlers. ## Anti-Patterns - **No Unconditional Requests**: Spamming permission dialogs leads to high denial rates. - **No Missing Handlers**: Forgetting "Quit" state handling results in lost deep links. - **No Unvalidated Data**: Blindly trusting payload data causes runtime crashes. ## References See [references/implementation.md](references/implementation.md) for FCM setup, APNs config, and lifecycle handlers.
