v2 is still maintained. To upgrade from v2 or from @shopify/react-native-skia, follow the migration guide.
Graphite runs on Dawn, Google's WebGPU implementation. With React Native WebGPU installed alongside it, Skia and WebGPU share the same GPU device and can exchange textures without any copy. This also works with three.js. See the WebGPU documentation.
