v2.0.0

First release of the modernized library. Breaking — see migration notes below.

⚠ Breaking changes

• react and react-native are now peerDependencies (any version your app uses).
• Removed the abortcontroller-polyfill and node-fetch runtime deps — the component uses the global fetch/AbortController (RN ≥ 0.60).

Features

• Full TypeScript rewrite with bundled type definitions (import UserAvatar, { UserAvatarProps }).
• New ignoreContentType prop for hosts (e.g. S3 URLs without an extension) that omit content-type.
• Initials capped at 3 characters.

Bug fixes

• textStyle now applies reliably, including after the async render (#117, #98).
• Removed deprecated defaultProps and its console warning (#131, #130).
• Trust responses without a content-type header (#120).
• Aborted image fetches no longer warn (#103).
• Correct, bundled TypeScript types — no more missing declaration file (#114, #129, #98).
• Removed the fragile platform-specific header access and require-cycle warning (#118).

Tooling

• react-native-builder-bob (commonjs + module + typescript), ESLint 8, Prettier 3, TypeScript 5, Jest 29, husky 9.
• GitHub Actions CI + CodeQL + OIDC trusted publishing with provenance.
• Example upgraded to Expo SDK 57 (React 19.2 / RN 0.82).

Migration

Most apps upgrade with no code changes. Ensure react/react-native are installed (they already are in any RN app). textStyle now works as documented.
