[feature-request] Support web

[NiciusB]

Currently, it seems like react-native-view-shot just returns undefined when ran in a web browser with react-native-web

I understand why this happens, but it might be interesting to wrap a library like html2canvas to provide at least some basic functionality

I will happily send a pull request if @gre thinks that it's within the scope of the package

Hi, did you add support for Web ?

[NiciusB]

Hi @dario30186. The merge request is still open, so react-native-view-shotdoes not have web support.

You could use my fork: react-native-view-shot-with-web-support on npm (https://github.com/NiciusB/react-native-view-shot). I have to warn, it will not be perfect. It uses html2canvas which has some drawbacks, more notably the text kerning can be pretty weird.

@NiciusB this is awesome. Works perfectly for me. Thanks for saving a ton of hours. 😍
