Consider enabling Hermes JS engine for Android #53

Description

@acostalima

Issues

Hermes does not yet support Intl API. Therefore, we need to polyfill the runtime to be able to continue using react-intl. Is it possible to install a polyfill?

Performance gains

For JavaScript-based mobile applications, user experience benefits from attention to a few primary metrics:

  • The time it takes for the app to become usable, called time to interact (TTI)
  • The download size (on Android, APK size)
  • Memory utilization
