Does React Native support offline database storage?

Yes, React Native does support offline database storage. React Native uses the AsyncStorage API to provide built-in support for storing data offline.

AsyncStorage is a simple, asynchronous, key-value storage system that allows you to persist data locally on the user’s device. It provides basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations for managing data, such as storing, retrieving, updating, and deleting data.

To use AsyncStorage in your React Native app, you can import it from the react-native package like this:

import { AsyncStorage } from 'react-native';

Once imported, you can use the getItem, setItem, removeItem, and clear methods to interact with the local storage.

Here are the basic steps to store and retrieve data using AsyncStorage:

  1. Import the AsyncStorage module.
  2. Use the setItem method to store data by providing a key-value pair.
  3. Use the getItem method to retrieve data by providing the key.

In addition to AsyncStorage, you can also use third-party libraries like SQLite or Realm for more advanced offline database storage in React Native.
