Summary: An implementation for the RFC in react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals#1008 `PlatformColor` previously had no way to specify what color to use when none of the supplied native color tokens resolve on the device. On a miss the behavior was inconsistent across platforms and architectures (transparent, nil, or a thrown error), giving apps no control over the rendered result. This adds an optional trailing `{fallback: '<raw color string>'}` argument to `PlatformColor(...)` and updates the JS entry points to emit it. The fallback is carried lazily to native as a raw, unprocessed string and is only parsed when every provided token fails to resolve (the native side of that behavior landed earlier in this stack). When at least one token resolves the fallback is ignored, so existing call sites are completely unaffected and omitting the argument preserves today's exact behavior. Example: PlatformColor('someSystemToken', {fallback: '#FF0000'}) Each platform entry point (`PlatformColorValueTypes.{android,ios,macos,windows}.js`, plus the vendored macOS/Windows copies) collects the leading string tokens and, when a trailing `{fallback}` object is present, attaches its raw string to the native color object. Non-string arguments in a non-trailing position are filtered out consistently rather than being forwarded to native. The Flow (`.js.flow`), TypeScript (`.d.ts`), and generated (`ReactNativeApi.d.ts`) declarations widen the signature to `Array<string | {fallback: string}>`, which is backward compatible.

…cOS (native) (react#57556) Summary: An implementation for the RFC in react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals#1008 This is the first diff in a stack that adds an optional trailing `{fallback: '<raw color string>'}` argument to `PlatformColor(...)`. The fallback is carried lazily to native and parsed only when every supplied color token fails to resolve. This diff wires up the iOS and macOS native color resolvers to honor that fallback; a later diff adds the JS argument that emits it, so on its own this change is a no-op for existing call sites. The fallback is supported on the new architecture (Fabric) only. To distinguish a genuine miss (no token resolves) from a token that legitimately resolves to a transparent color, the semantic-color resolver gains an `OrNil` variant: - `RCTPlatformColorFromSemanticItemsOrNil` returns `nil` on a miss instead of collapsing to `clearColor`. `RCTPlatformColorFromSemanticItems` keeps its existing non-null contract by wrapping the `OrNil` variant. - `Color::createSemanticColor` returns the undefined-color sentinel (a null underlying `UIColor`) on a miss, so `PlatformColorParser.mm` applies the fallback only on a true miss and otherwise renders transparent exactly as before. - The fallback string is parsed with the shared CSS color parser (`parseCSSProperty<CSSColor>`), so `transparent`/`rgba(0,0,0,0)` are honored rather than mistaken for a parse failure. This spans the `xplat` iOS and macOS graphics resolvers.

…ative) (react#57655) Summary: An implementation for the RFC in react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals#1008 Wires up the Android native color resolver (Fabric) to honor the lazy `{fallback}` carried by `PlatformColor(...)`. A later diff adds the JS argument that emits it, so on its own this change is a no-op for existing call sites. To tell a genuine miss apart from a token that resolves to transparent black (ARGB 0): - `FabricUIManager.getColor` now returns a boxed `Nullable Integer` — `null` means no resource path resolved. The Fabric C++ `PlatformColorParser.h` reads that boxed result over JNI, caches the explicit-miss signal, and on a miss parses the raw fallback string with the shared CSS color parser (`parseCSSProperty<CSSColor>`), matching the iOS Fabric path. The color object is now read as a `map<string, RawValue>` because it mixes an array (`resource_paths`) with an optional string (`fallback`). - `NativeDrawable` carries an optional `colorFallback` alongside `resource_paths` so ripple drawables degrade to the fallback too. Generated files (`ReactAndroid.api` and the `ReactAndroid*Cxx.api` snapshots) are regenerated to match the new public signatures.

PlatformColorpreviously had no way to specify what color to use when none of the supplied native color tokens resolve on the device. On a miss the behavior was inconsistent across platforms and architectures (transparent, nil, or a thrown error), giving apps no control over the rendered result.This adds an optional trailing
{fallback: '<raw color string>'}argument toPlatformColor(...)and updates the JS entry points to emit it. The fallback is carried lazily to native as a raw, unprocessed string and is only parsed when every provided token fails to resolve (the native side of that behavior landed earlier in this stack). When at least one token resolves the fallback is ignored, so existing call sites are completely unaffected and omitting the argument preserves today's exact behavior.Example:
PlatformColor('someSystemToken', {fallback: '#FF0000'})
Each platform entry point (
PlatformColorValueTypes.{android,ios,macos,windows}.js, plus the vendored macOS/Windows copies) collects the leading string tokens and, when a trailing{fallback}object is present, attaches its raw string to the native color object. Non-string arguments in a non-trailing position are filtered out consistently rather than being forwarded to native. The Flow (.js.flow), TypeScript (.d.ts), and generated (ReactNativeApi.d.ts) declarations widen the signature toArray<string | {fallback: string}>, which is backward compatible.Changelog:
