I am wondering if it is possible to develop an App Launcher application for Android. I am referring to the app launcher introduced by different vendors, i.e. Microsoft App Launcher, Google App Launcher, and many more...
I could not find any library that could help me in this regard. If this is not possible by ReactNative then how and in which technology I could achieve this goal.

This can be done by changing the AndroidManifest.xml
Under the <intent-filter>
in the XML add the following two lines
<category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />

. It is a good project for beginners to understand react native
and native bridge
.
As a side note these libraries might also help to achieve a specific goal if we have in specific plan:
