- You also need to install [react-native-reanimated](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-reanimated/) and [react-native-worklets](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-worklets/) for animations.

```

- Follow the [React Native Reanimated installation guide](https://docs.swmansion.com/react-native-reanimated/docs/fundamentals/getting-started/) for your toolchain (Expo vs React Native Community CLI). **Community CLI** setups must add `'react-native-worklets/plugin'` **last** in your `babel.config.js` `plugins` array. **Expo** setups follow that guide’s Expo steps (install packages and rebuild native code); starter templates [since Expo SDK 50](https://expo.dev/changelog/2024/01-18-sdk-50) usually include the Worklets Babel plugin already—add it only if your `babel.config.js` does not.

Additionaly for `iOS` platform there is a requirement to link the native parts of the library:

Just a comment, not necessarily requesting changes as I'm not sure about best practices for devDependencies vs peerDependencies but reanimated 4.3.0's own peer dep is react-native-worklets: 0.8.x. This would allow react-native-worklets: 0.9.0 even though reanimated would reject it.

I'm not quite sure here as well. I think Paper should only states minimums; Reanimated’s own peerDependencies and the app’s lockfile are where compatible worklets / Reanimated pairings are enforced.
