What is the best solution for Local Notifications in IOS for react native?

As the React Native website informs us PushNotificationsIOS is now deprecated. What is recommended is using https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-push-notification-ios. However, this project does not seem to be maintained or commonly utilized. Frustratingly, it lacks Typescript support.

I am having problems using a Notification Content Extention for some nice custom iOS notifications. I suspect this has something to do with react-native-push-notification-ios's use of now deprecated UILocalNotification. Like many projects in the elephant graveyard that is the RN ecosystem, it seems painfully out of date. I'm reluctant to further troubleshoot my issues because it seems like a lonely, time consuming and potentially fruitless effort. Additionally, I'm trying to avoid writing a lot of native code.

Is there a solution I am missing here? Or am I asking for too much native support from React Native?

I always use firebase for my notifications. It works really well in my opinion. https://rnfirebase.io/docs/v5.x.x/notifications/introduction
