Support RN Module for Web (to fix error when loading assets on Web with Metro) about react-native-skia HOT 4 CLOSED

Well I didn't find any elegant solution to load the assets directly from the Platform.web.tsx file...

🤷🏼‍♂️ I don't know how to use the Module ID that Metro provides on the Web and get to the asset...
👀 I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any?

In the meantime, I plan to update the documentation with 2 possible approaches:

• for publicly accessible folders (public/ and assets/), you can adapt the loading based on the platform:

// ONLY FOR PUBLIC FOLDER: Ternary based on platform
const myAssetPath = 'assets/images/my-image.png';
const relativePathToTheAssetFolder = '../../';
const asset = (Platform.OS === 'web') ? `/${myAssetPath}` : require(`${relativePathToTheAssetFolder}${myAssetPath}`);

• if you want to load assets outside of those folders, you can use expo-asset:

import { useAssets } from 'expo-asset';
// (...)
const [assets, error] = useAssets([require(`../random-folder/my-image.png`)]);
const asset = (!error && assets) ? assets[0].uri : null;

The main issue comes with the fact that react-native Image.resolveAssetSource() util is not available on the Web 🥹

As per @william-candillon's comment, closing this issue per #2176 fix

👉 Shouldn't be implemented in Platform.web.tsx but rather better documented (how to load assets on RN web), so that RN Skia could run on the web without any RN dependency.
