Is your feature request related to a problem?

Dealing with ads these days usually means working with VAST XML data. It would be very helpful if a reasonable XML parser was available to Kepler developers.

Describe the solution you’d like

Just make the react-native-xml2js, maybe the react-native-xml npm packages available, as they seem to require native support.

Is this a blocker? Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Pure-JS xml parsers, which is a pain. Regex parsing, which is very fragile and not maintainable.

Platorms have XML support available, it is a matter of exporting it.

Additional context

Google IMA will presumably need to be supported for Kepler, they will presumably need an XML parser.

@rblaa - this use case is not yet available or supported through other available options, we will put this in our roadmap for next year.

hi @rblaa - Did you try txml parser ( GitHub - TobiasNickel/tXml: ⚡very small and fast xml-parser in pure javascript⚡ ), which is relatively faster and might help improve performance? Again this is pure TS but have shown significant performance benefits over others.
let me know if you are just looking for some native XML parser support and do not want to use any TS based XML parser at all.
