Now that we have covered how to render our React Native app inside an Android app in the Combining a React Native app and a native Android app recipe, we're ready to take the next step. Our React Native application should be more than a dummy UI. It should be able to react to actions that are going on in its parent application.
In this recipe, we will accomplish sending data from our Android application to our embedded React Native app. The React Native application can accept data when it is first instantiated, and then at runtime. We will be covering how to accomplish both methods. This recipe will use EditText in the Android app and set up one-way binding to the React Native app.
