Steps to Reproduce

HTML Canvas API can do amazing things for UI but it's not available in React Native....

1. Try Canvas API on React Native
2. Nothing will happen...

Expected Behavior

React Native would fully support Canvas API
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Canvas_API

Actual Behavior

React Native doesn't respond to Canvas API... that is a huge miss for talented UI designers.
See what you can do with Canvas API here:
https://codepen.io/search/pens?q=canvas+api&limit=all&type=type-pens

and please imagine what if you could use them on React Native.

Reproducible Demo

All React Native apps are demos for this problem.
We need Canvas API fully supported in React Native ASAP.....
