React Native News app

NewsApp is a React Native application that provides users with the latest news headlines. It allows users to toggle between dark and light themes and fetches news headlines from an external API. Additionally, users can perform various actions such as pinning, unpinning, deleting headlines by swiping gestures, viewing details of news articles, and sharing news headlines.

Features
