React Native rhyme finder on Google Play

Second store app, two months after the first, and the only React Native project.

FromRhymenition

A rhyme finder that shows a definition for any word you tap, built in React Native and listed on Google Play two months after the first Kotlin app. One external rhyme API, one dictionary lookup, a navigation stack and a handful of empty states.

Useful mostly as a contrast: the same store process in a second stack. React Native was faster to a first screen and slower everywhere else, and the vendored iOS dependencies made the repository heavier than the app.
