I'm using UI Kitten with my latest React Native app, and in this section of the docs it says Run npx react-native link from the project root to link fonts with the native side. I haven't used npx react-native link in a long time because of autolinking. So my question is: will running npx react-native link affect any of my native modules or anything else in the app in a way that I should know about (other than the desired linking of fonts here)?

    running react-native link will link the assets of your app, it should not affect any native modules. However just for precautionary measure, just create a backup of your project – Muhammad Anas Khurshid Jan 31 '21 at 05:51
  • What does it mean to link the assets of my project, and how do we know that this wouldn't affect native modules? The reason I assumed it affected native modules is that in the past I would do `npm add ` followed by `npm link ` which would link the module. – gkeenley Feb 01 '21 at 03:02
