10 New Libraries for Fire TV

Amazon announced 10 new libraries for Fire TV, including React Navigation, icon sets, and SVG charts, all confirmed compatible with Fire OS and Vega. The libraries were tested using an AI harness built by developers Gio and Moses Roth to ensure compatibility with Fire TV platforms.

Last time I told you about how Gio https://dev.to/giolaq and I built an AI harness to test React Native libraries on Fire TV https://dev.to/mosesroth/12-hints-to-harness-ai-8hf . Now that hundreds of libraries are confirmed compatible with Fire OS https://reactnative.directory/packages?fireos=true and Vega https://reactnative.directory/packages?vegaos=true , is there anything cool that might be useful for your app? I'm glad you asked Here are 10 you might want to check out: React Navigation https://github.com/mosesroth/navigation-cross-platform is a uniquely useful set of libraries for Fire TV because navigation is the fundamental element behind every TV app even more than streaming media . It's not only cross-compatible with Fire OS and Vega, but also Apple TV, Android TV, and web platforms like Samsung Tizen and LG webOS, so you can use it in every version of your app. I've prepared a sample app, which shows you how to implement all of these React Navigation libraries in both your Fire OS and Vega apps plus a few bonus libraries to help you get set up : Once you've got the navigation implemented, you'll need icons to populate your menus and screens. Here are three icon sets https://github.com/mosesroth/icons-cross-platform you can try to make your app look good, now all confirmed compatible with Fire TV: Of course TV apps aren't just for streaming media. If you find yourself needing to build an app for your work, to share reports or data sets, check out these SVG charts https://github.com/mosesroth/charts-cross-platform for great ways to do that: What other libraries would you like to see come to Fire TV?
