Getting Started with React Native and Abena AI SDK

React Native developers can now easily add powerful AI capabilities to their applications using the Abena AI SDK. This tutorial will guide you through the complete integration process.

Installation

First, install the Abena AI SDK in your React Native project:

npm install @abena-ai/react-native-sdk

For iOS projects, you'll also need to run:

cd ios && pod install

Basic Setup

Initialize the SDK in your App.js file:

import { AbenaAI } from '@abena-ai/react-native-sdk';

export default function App() {
useEffect(() => {
AbenaAI.initialize({
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
enableOnDeviceProcessing: true
});
}, []);

return (
// Your app components
);
}

Implementing Text Analysis

Add intelligent text analysis to your app:

const analyzeText = async () => {
  try {
    const result = await AbenaAI.analyzeText(text);
    setAnalysis(result);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Analysis failed:', error);
  }
};

Performance Optimization

To ensure optimal performance:

  • Lazy Loading: Only initialize AI features when needed
  • Caching: Cache results to avoid repeated processing
  • Background Processing: Use background tasks for heavy operations

Next Steps

Now that you have the basics working, explore advanced features:

  • Custom model training
  • Real-time processing
  • Multi-language support
  • Advanced analytics

The Abena AI SDK provides extensive documentation and examples for each of these features.
