New Beta Version With Full Offline Support Now Available

The new beta does not require downloading any files during program launch to make it work. All Editor and Viewer JavaScript files are bundled with the package.
install it by using:

npm install --save react-native-webview-quilljs@beta

or

yarn add react-native-webview-quilljs@beta

The code for the beta is in the inline-javascript-3 branch. NOTE: Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will be merging the beta and publishing it by 7 April, 2018.

Installation

npm install --save react-native-webview-quilljs

or

yarn add react-native-webview-quilljs

import {WebViewQuillEditor, WebViewQuillViewer} from 'react-native-webview-quilljs'

This package can be used to create both an editor and a viewer

    contentToDisplay={contentToDisplay}
    onLoad={this.onLoadCallback}
