Summary of Changes

Hello @kherembourg, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request undertakes a significant migration to React Native 0.83.1, involving extensive updates to development environment configurations, build settings for both Android and iOS platforms, and dependency versions. It also introduces a new best practices document to standardize future upgrade processes and includes a critical fix for an Android memory leak.

Highlights

• React Native Upgrade: The project has been migrated to React Native version 0.83.1, updating core dependencies and configurations across the codebase.
• Node.js Version Update: The required Node.js version has been updated to v20.19.4 in .nvmrc and package.json files.
• Android Build Environment Updates: Android build configurations have been updated to use Kotlin 2.1+, Java 17, and Gradle 8.14, ensuring compatibility with the new React Native version.
• iOS Project Configuration: iOS project settings (project.pbxproj and Info.plist) were modified to correctly configure the Node.js binary path and enable the New Architecture.
• New Upgrade Best Practices Guide: A comprehensive guide (docs/react-native-upgrade-best-practices.md) has been added to document best practices for future React Native version upgrades.
• Android Memory Leak Fix: A potential memory leak in PurchaselyViewManager.kt related to Choreographer.FrameCallback has been addressed by implementing frame callback tracking and proper cleanup.
• Native Module Command ID Update: The PLYPresentationView.tsx component now uses numeric command IDs for Android native module calls, ensuring compatibility with React Native's New Architecture.

Code Review

This pull request successfully migrates the project to React Native 0.83.1, updating dependencies and configurations across the monorepo. It notably includes a critical fix for a potential memory leak in the Android PurchaselyViewManager and refactors the PLYPresentationView for better New Architecture compatibility. The addition of a comprehensive guide for future React Native upgrades is a valuable asset. My review includes a couple of suggestions to improve the accuracy of this new documentation and to restore a helpful warning comment in the example app's Info.plist.
