# Installation

> 🚧 Please note that the Flagship React SDK is designed to work exclusively with React hooks.
>
> Our React SDK is tailored to work with React hooks. If you're looking to use our SDK without hooks, we recommend using our [Javascript SDK](https://docs.developers.flagship.io/docs/js-sdk) instead.

## Prerequisites

* Node.js: version 6.0.0 or later
* Npm: version 5.2.0 or later
* React: version 16.8.0 or later (Please note that our SDK is only compatible with React hooks)

## Installation Guide

To add the SDK as a dependency to your project, you can use either NPM or YARN:

```shell
npm install @flagship.io/react-native-sdk
```

```shell
yarn add @flagship.io/react-native-sdk
```

These commands will install the Flagship React SDK into your project, allowing you to start integrating Flagship features into your application.

> 📘 Information
>
> Please ensure that you have also installed the [@react-native-async-storage/async-storage](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@react-native-async-storage/async-storage) package. If it's not already in your project, you'll need to add it separately.
