Yes, libraries such as TypeScript that compile to JavaScript are compatible with React Native. React Native supports TypeScript, which is a superset of JavaScript that adds static type definitions. This compatibility allows developers to leverage TypeScript's type-checking features to minimize errors and improve code quality in their React Native applications.

Starting from React Native version 0.71, TypeScript is supported by default, meaning new projects created via the React Native CLI are set up with TypeScript out of the box, including a pre-configured tsconfig.json file[8]. This integration simplifies the process of using TypeScript with React Native, as developers no longer need to manually configure TypeScript support.

For existing projects, TypeScript can be added by installing the necessary TypeScript and type definition packages, creating a tsconfig.json file, and renaming JavaScript files to use the .tsx extension for files containing JSX[7][9]. This setup ensures that TypeScript can be used seamlessly with React Native, providing type-checking and other TypeScript features while still compiling down to JavaScript for execution.
