Describe the feature and the current behavior/state.
Tensorflow js currently doesn't work well with the hermes engine which is used for expo react native applications. Expo 49 doesn't work with jsc jsEngine, which means that I can't use tensorflow js...
Will this change the current api? How?
Not sure.
Who will benefit with this feature?
Many people using expo for app development
Any Other info.

Hi, @kenhuang1964

Thanks for your question about support for the Hermes JS engine in TensorFlow.js and Hermes JavaScript engine made the default in Expo 49, but you can still use JSC in Expo 48 by setting the jsEngine field to jsc in your app.config.js file

At the moment I'm not sure if the development team is actively working on Hermes JS engine support in TensorFlow.js, or if it is still under development. I will confirm with the relevant team and update you soon.

Thank you!
