postinstall.cjs

/*
 * Maintenance notice shown when react-native-gifted-chat is installed.
 *
 * This only prints a message - no network calls, no telemetry. It must never
 * fail an install, so everything is wrapped and the process always exits 0.
 * Silence it with GIFTED_CHAT_NO_NOTICE=1 (or npm install --ignore-scripts).
 *
 * .cjs because the package is "type": "module" - this needs CommonJS for
 * require/__dirname.
