+Khan Changes
+------------
+Things I did to get this going:
+
+- checkout the `v0.64.2` tag from facebook/react-native
+- apply the patch from this comment https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/31121#issuecomment-802182459
+- run `npm pack react-native@v0.64.2` to get the `react-native-0.64.2.tgz` tarball of the official release of react native, because it includes some android-only binary artifacts that I didn't want to risk messing up.
+- unpack the tarball, and copy the `package/android` directory into the repo. `git add -f android`, because it's gitignored.
+- push! Point our app to `gtihub.com/Khan/react-native#fix-abspath`
+- profit
