How to Add Polygon to MapView in React Native

In Objective-C, we can use MKPolygon to add a polygon to the mapview. How can I add polygons to map view using React Native? Is it possible? I think technically it is possible. I probably need to go the source code of react native.

It might be, but the MapView that comes with React Native is lacking for Android, and it seems crippled for iOS. I only saw the overlay property, which should work for polygons, and it even has a fillColor property, which would imply that you could. However, It's not clear from the docs what to do to tell the overlay that you want a polygon instead of a polyline.

I'd suggest this much more capable replacement MapView for React Native: https://github.com/lelandrichardson/react-native-maps

I'm halfway expecting the React Native maintainers to take notice of it, and integrate it if they find out about it.
