Great question. Right now playing the animation with the imperative API in React Native will be driven entirely on the main thread, but the declarative API with `Animated` will not be (yet).

I'm very interested in building the proper hooks natively to allow for usage with `useNativeDriver: true`. We are perfectly situated for this too, considering the author of the iOS side was also the engineer who introduced offloaded animations to React Native on the iOS side!
