## Source excerpt

Shopify is investing in React Native as our primary choice of mobile technology moving forward. As a part of this we've rewritten our package tracking app Arrive with React Native and launched it on Android--an app that previously only had an iOS version. One of the most cherished features by the users of the Arrive iOS app is the confetti that rains down on the screen when an order is delivered.
