Provide an installation option without CocoaPods about native-navigation HOT 9 OPEN

@braco sure. I wrote a short blogpost about it, but not sure if I should publish it. Here you can see the draft: https://medium.com/@kureevalexey/how-to-use-airbnbs-native-navigation-without-cocoapods-aa958554beff

@Kureev: thank you! I say publish it, a hacky solution beats no solution.

Hey, thanks for filing an issue. I'd like us to make Native Navigation work without CocoaPods.

The problem is not cocoapods but rather the fact that the swift library (native navigation) has a transitive dependency on React, which we also want to include in the app as a statically linked binary, which for the most part is incompatible with swift.

I don't think removing the imports and then treating the library as application code is the right approach though. I will try and rope in some other people that understand this better and see if they can help and what they think we should do.

Thanks for your feedback!

Yeah, I completely understand your concerns. This is just one of the approaches we can take there, so I'm completely fine with any proposed alternative if result will be the same.

In the meantime, I'll fill the gap by forking your library and implementing proposed solution. Once it'll be solved in the master, I'll delete my fork.

Please, let me know if I can help solving this.

What about Carthage support? I only use Carthage in my development

@nihgwu can we have a separate thread for Carthage support? I'd like to keep this thread as focused as possible (otherwise initial subject will be lost).

@Kureev - could you write out how you got the install working, specifically? Would be helpful to me, I don't use CocoaPods.

With upcoming support for Swift static libraries in Xcode 9, it seems like it should be possible to get something working with react-native link.

Is there anyone that managed to do this with react-native link?
