Graphite

Skia has two backends: Ganesh and Graphite. Ganesh is the default backend. Graphite is available as an experimental preview in the @next distribution channel:

yarn add @shopify/react-native-skia@next

This is highly experimental and not recommended for production use. Skia Graphite requires Android API Level 26 or above.

If you prefer to build Skia yourself with Graphite support, you can do so with SK_GRAPHITE=1 yarn build-skia. React Native Skia automatically detects Graphite via a marker file included in the prebuilt libs.
