Does multiple packages and dependencies effect the size of final build of React-Native android release

Question

I am a month into react-native and going through the learning process. Does adding too many packages somehow affect the size of the final android release. I also want to know if is it good practice to use the same project for multiple apps. Is it safe to use this many dependencies in a single project?

  "dependencies": {
    "@react-native-community/masked-view": "^0.1.5",
    "@react-native-firebase/app": "^6.2.0",
    "@react-native-firebase/auth": "^6.2.0",
    "native-base": "^2.13.8",
    "react": "16.9.0",
    "react-native": "0.61.5",
    "react-native-calendars": "^1.220.0",
    "react-native-contacts": "^5.0.6",
    "react-native-gesture-handler": "^1.5.3",
    "react-native-maps": "0.26.1",
    "react-native-safe-area-context": "^0.6.2",
    "react-native-star-rating": "^1.1.0",
    "react-native-vector-icons": "^6.6.0",
    "react-navigation": "^4.0.10",
    "react-navigation-stack": "^2.0.13"
  },

Basically Yes

But to see how much each package takes

You should check with this tool cost of modules

Cost of modules

Find out which of your dependencies is slowing you down

npm install -g cost-of-modules

Run cost-of-modules in the directory you are working in.
