## Component Architecture

### 1. BannerManager (Singleton)

**Purpose**: Central controller for banner lifecycle management

```mermaid
stateDiagram-v2
    [*] --> Hidden: Initial State
    Hidden --> Showing: showBanner()
    
    Showing --> AutoHiding: showBannerWithAutoHide()
    Showing --> Hidden: hideBanner(bannerId) / User Dismiss
    
    AutoHiding --> Hidden: Timeout Expires
    AutoHiding --> Hidden: hideBanner(bannerId) / User Dismiss
    
    Hidden --> [*]: cleanup()
    Showing --> [*]: cleanup()
    AutoHiding --> [*]: cleanup()
```

**Key Features**:
- Singleton pattern with support for multiple stacked banners in a single overlay
- Per-banner auto-hide timers for independent timeout management
- **Promise-chain queue system** to prevent race conditions (replaces previous UpdateState enum)
- 2-second overlay dismiss delay to prevent flickering during rapid banner changes
- Overlay system integration with `Navigation.updateProps` for efficient updates
- Error handling for dismiss callbacks
- State tracking (active banners array, overlay visibility, individual timers)
- **Required `bannerId` parameter** for `hideBanner()` to prevent accidental cross-system interference

**Android Limitation**:
- On Android, when both top AND bottom banners are displayed simultaneously, only ONE GestureHandlerRootView can properly register touch events
- iOS works correctly with simultaneous top/bottom banners
- Workaround not yet implemented - future enhancement may add banner position prioritization on Android

### 2. FloatingBanner Component

**Purpose**: Main rendering component that splits banners by position and delegates to BannerSection

```mermaid
flowchart TD
    FB[FloatingBanner] --> CHECK{Banners exist?}
    CHECK -->|No| NULL[Return null]
    CHECK -->|Yes| SPLIT[Split by position]
    
    SPLIT --> TOP[Top Banners]
    SPLIT --> BOTTOM[Bottom Banners]
    
    TOP --> BSTOP[BannerSection 'top']
    BOTTOM --> BSBOTTOM[BannerSection 'bottom']
    
    BSTOP --> GHRTOP[GestureHandlerRootView<br/>positioned at top]
    BSBOTTOM --> GHRBOTTOM[GestureHandlerRootView<br/>positioned at bottom]
    
    GHRTOP --> ABTOP[AnimatedBannerItem<br/>Components]
    GHRBOTTOM --> ABBOTTOM[AnimatedBannerItem<br/>Components]
    
    ABTOP --> CONTENT[Banner Content]
    ABBOTTOM --> CONTENT
    
    CONTENT --> BI[BannerItem]
    CONTENT --> CUSTOM[Custom Content]
```

### 3. BannerSection Component

**Purpose**: Positions and sizes the GestureHandlerRootView for a banner section (top or bottom)

**Key Features**:
- Creates a `GestureHandlerRootView` for each section (top/bottom)
- Uses `useBannerGestureRootPosition` hook for platform-specific positioning
- Calculates container height based on number of banners
- Applies safe area insets for top banners
- Handles keyboard adjustments (iOS only)
- Returns `null` when no banners in section

```mermaid
graph LR
    subgraph "BannerSection Features"
        POS["Position Calculation<br/>• useBannerGestureRootPosition hook<br/>• Container height calculation<br/>• Safe area insets (top only)<br/>• Keyboard-aware (iOS)"]
        GESTURE["Gesture Root<br/>• GestureHandlerRootView<br/>• pointerEvents='box-none'<br/>• Positioned absolutely"]
        RENDER["Banner Rendering<br/>• AnimatedBannerItem per banner<br/>• Swipe to dismiss gestures<br/>• Stacked with spacing"]
    end
    
    POS --> GESTURE
    GESTURE --> RENDER
```

### 4. useBannerGestureRootPosition Hook

**Purpose**: Calculates positioning and sizing for GestureHandlerRootView based on platform, device type, and keyboard state

**Key Features**:
- Platform-specific bottom offsets (Android vs iOS)
- Tablet-specific width constraints (96% of available width after sidebar)
- Keyboard-aware positioning (iOS dynamically adjusts, Android uses fixed offset)
- Memoized for performance
- Exports `BANNER_TABLET_WIDTH_PERCENTAGE` constant via `testExports`

    end
```

    end
```

## API Reference

### BannerConfig Interface

```typescript
interface BannerConfig {
    id: string;                    // Unique identifier
    title: string;                 // Banner title text
    message: string;               // Banner message text
    type?: 'info' | 'success' | 'warning' | 'error';  // Visual styling
    dismissible?: boolean;         // Can user dismiss (default: true)
    autoHideDuration?: number;     // Auto-hide timeout in ms
    position?: 'top' | 'bottom';   // Screen position (default: 'top')
    onPress?: () => void;          // Tap handler
    onDismiss?: () => void;        // Dismiss handler
    customComponent?: ReactNode;   // Custom banner component
}
```

### BannerManager API

```typescript
class BannerManager {
    // Show banner immediately (stacks with existing banners)
    showBanner(config: BannerConfig): void;
    
    // Show banner with auto-hide (per-banner timer)
    showBannerWithAutoHide(config: BannerConfig, durationMs?: number): void;
    
    // Hide specific banner by ID (required to prevent accidental cross-system interference)
    hideBanner(bannerId: string): void;
    
    // Hide all banners at once
    hideAllBanners(): void;
    
    // Clean up all timeouts and state
    cleanup(): void;
    
    // Get most recently added banner ID
    getCurrentBannerId(): string | null;
    
    // Check if any banner is visible
    isBannerVisible(): boolean;
}
```

### Internal State Management

```typescript
private activeBanners: FloatingBannerConfig[] = [];           // Array of active banners
private overlayVisible = false;                                // Tracks overlay state
private autoHideTimers: Map<string, NodeJS.Timeout> = new Map(); // Per-banner timers
private updateQueue: Promise<void> = Promise.resolve();        // Promise-chain queue
private dismissOverlayTimer: NodeJS.Timeout | null = null;     // 2s dismiss delay
private dismissOverlayResolve: (() => void) | null = null;     // Delay cancellation
```

**Note**: The previous `UpdateState` enum has been replaced with a promise-chain queue system for better handling of concurrent updates.

## Usage Patterns

### 1. Basic Banner Display

```typescript
import {BannerManager} from '@managers/banner_manager';

// Simple info banner
BannerManager.showBanner({
    id: 'welcome-message',
    title: 'Welcome!',
    message: 'Thanks for using Mattermost',
    type: 'success'
});
```

### 2. Auto-hiding Banner

```typescript
// Show banner for 3 seconds (with per-banner timer)
BannerManager.showBannerWithAutoHide({
    id: 'temp-notification',
    title: 'Message Sent',
    message: 'Your message was delivered successfully',
    type: 'success'
}, 3000);

// Multiple auto-hide banners work independently
BannerManager.showBannerWithAutoHide({
    id: 'banner-1',
    title: 'First',
    message: 'Auto-hides in 5s',
    type: 'info'
}, 5000);

BannerManager.showBannerWithAutoHide({
    id: 'banner-2',
    title: 'Second',
    message: 'Auto-hides in 3s',
    type: 'success'
}, 3000);
// Both banners stack and auto-hide independently
```

### 3. Network Status Banner

```typescript
// In NetworkConnectivityManager
private showDisconnectedBanner() {
    BannerManager.showBanner({
        id: 'network-disconnected',
        title: 'No Connection',
        message: 'Check your internet connection',
        type: 'error',
        position: 'bottom',
        customComponent: (
            <ConnectionBanner 
                isConnected={false}
                message="No internet connection"
                dismissible={true}
                onDismiss={() => this.handleBannerDismiss()}
            />
        )
    });
}
```

### 4. Custom Component Banner

```typescript
// Custom banner with complex content
BannerManager.showBanner({
    id: 'custom-banner',
    title: 'Custom',
    message: 'Custom message',
    customComponent: (
        <View style={styles.customBanner}>
            <Text>Custom banner content</Text>
            <Button title="Action" onPress={handleAction} />
        </View>
    ),
    dismissible: true,
    onDismiss: () => console.log('Custom banner dismissed')
});
```

### 5. Hiding Specific Banners

```typescript
// Hide a specific banner by ID (required parameter)
BannerManager.hideBanner('banner-1');

// Hide all banners at once
BannerManager.hideAllBanners();

// Check if any banner is visible
if (BannerManager.isBannerVisible()) {
    console.log('Current banner:', BannerManager.getCurrentBannerId());
}
```

## Configuration & Positioning

### GestureHandlerRootView Positioning System

The system uses a **two-level positioning architecture**:

1. **BannerSection Level**: Creates a `GestureHandlerRootView` for each position (top/bottom) and positions it using the `useBannerGestureRootPosition` hook
2. **AnimatedBannerItem Level**: Individual banners within each section are positioned using absolutely positioned `Animated.View` wrappers

```typescript
// BannerSection calculates container height
const containerHeight = useMemo(() => {
    const numBanners = sectionBanners.length;
    const spacing = (numBanners - 1) * BANNER_SPACING;
    return (BANNER_HEIGHT * numBanners) + spacing;
}, [sectionBanners.length]);

// useBannerGestureRootPosition returns positioning for the GestureHandlerRootView
const gestureRootStyle = useBannerGestureRootPosition({
    position,
    containerHeight,
});
// Returns: {height, top: 0} for top or {height, bottom: offset} for bottom
// Plus tablet-specific: {maxWidth, alignSelf: 'center'}
```

### AnimatedBannerItem Stacking

Within each `BannerSection`, banners stack with `AnimatedBannerItem` wrappers:

```typescript
// Each banner gets an absolutely positioned wrapper
// Top banners stack from top: insets.top + (index * (BANNER_HEIGHT + BANNER_SPACING))
// Bottom banners stack from bottom: 0 + (index * (BANNER_HEIGHT + BANNER_SPACING))
```

### Stacking Behavior

Multiple banners stack with consistent 8px spacing (`BANNER_SPACING` constant), managed by `AnimatedBannerItem` components in `FloatingBanner`.

### Constants

```typescript
// Banner dimensions and spacing (from @constants/view)
const CHANNEL_BANNER_HEIGHT = 40;          // Height of each banner (px)
const BANNER_SPACING = 8;                  // Spacing between stacked banners (px)

// Bottom positioning offsets (from @constants/view)
const FLOATING_BANNER_BOTTOM_OFFSET_PHONE_IOS = 105;
const FLOATING_BANNER_BOTTOM_OFFSET_PHONE_ANDROID = 90;
const FLOATING_BANNER_BOTTOM_OFFSET_WITH_KEYBOARD_IOS = 70;
const FLOATING_BANNER_BOTTOM_OFFSET_WITH_KEYBOARD_ANDROID = 80;
const FLOATING_BANNER_TABLET_EXTRA_BOTTOM_OFFSET = 60;

// Tablet layout (from useBannerGestureRootPosition hook)
const BANNER_TABLET_WIDTH_PERCENTAGE = 96;  // Tablets use 96% of available width
const TABLET_SIDEBAR_WIDTH = 320;           // From @constants/view

// BannerManager timing (from @managers/banner_manager)
const TIME_TO_CLOSE = 5000;                // Default auto-hide duration (ms)
const OVERLAY_DISMISS_DELAY = 2000;        // 2s delay before dismissing overlay (ms)
```

## Animation System

### Fade & Slide Animations

```typescript
// Entry animation
opacity: withTiming(visible ? 1 : 0, {duration: 300})
translateY: withTiming(visible ? 0 : slideOffset, {duration: 300})

// Dismiss animation (swipe)
translateX: withTiming(dismissed ? (swipeDirection > 0 ? 300 : -300) : 0, {duration: 200})
opacity: withTiming(dismissed ? 0 : 1, {duration: 200})
```

### Keyboard Adjustments

```typescript
// iOS keyboard adjustment for bottom banners
const animatedStyle = useAnimatedStyle(() => ({
    bottom: Platform.OS === 'ios' ? 
        withTiming(baseBottomOffset + keyboardHeight, {duration: 250}) :
        baseBottomOffset
}));
```

## Gesture System

### Swipe to Dismiss

```mermaid
stateDiagram-v2
    [*] --> Idle: Banner Rendered
    Idle --> Tracking: Pan Gesture Start
    Tracking --> Tracking: Pan Update<br/>translateX = startX + translation
    Tracking --> Evaluating: Pan End
    
    Evaluating --> Dismissing: |translateX| > threshold
    Evaluating --> Returning: |translateX| <= threshold
    
    Dismissing --> [*]: Banner Dismissed<br/>onDismiss() called
    Returning --> Idle: Spring back to center
```

## Banner Stacking & Animation System

### Multiple Banner Layout

The FloatingBanner component now implements a **wrapper-based positioning** system that properly stacks multiple banners:

```mermaid
graph TB
    FB[FloatingBanner] --> TOP[Top Banner Section]
    FB --> BOTTOM[Bottom Banner Section]
    
    TOP --> T1[AnimatedBannerItem 1<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>top: baseOffset + 0 * 48]
    TOP --> T2[AnimatedBannerItem 2<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>top: baseOffset + 1 * 48]
    TOP --> T3[AnimatedBannerItem 3<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>top: baseOffset + 2 * 48]
    
    BOTTOM --> B1[AnimatedBannerItem 1<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>bottom: baseOffset + 0 * 48]
    BOTTOM --> B2[AnimatedBannerItem 2<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>bottom: baseOffset + 1 * 48]
    BOTTOM --> B3[AnimatedBannerItem 3<br/>Animated.View wrapper<br/>position: absolute<br/>bottom: baseOffset + 2 * 48]
    
    T1 --> Banner1[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
    T2 --> Banner2[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
    T3 --> Banner3[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
    
    B1 --> Banner4[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
    B2 --> Banner5[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
    B3 --> Banner6[Banner Component<br/>position: relative]
```

### Stacking Implementation

Each banner is wrapped in an absolutely positioned `Animated.View` that handles:
- **Position calculation**: `baseOffset + (index * (CHANNEL_BANNER_HEIGHT + BANNER_SPACING))`
- **Smooth animations**: Position changes animate with `withTiming({duration: 250})`
- **Consistent spacing**: 8px gap between each banner (using `BANNER_SPACING` constant)

```typescript
// Both top and bottom start with base spacing
let baseOffset = BANNER_SPACING; // 8px

// Top banners add safe area and header heights
if (isTop) {
    baseOffset += insets.top;
    
    if (isTablet) {
        baseOffset += TABLET_HEADER_HEIGHT;
    } else {
        baseOffset += DEFAULT_HEADER_HEIGHT;
    }
}

// Calculate final stacked position
const stackOffset = baseOffset + (index * (CHANNEL_BANNER_HEIGHT + BANNER_SPACING));

// Animation
const animatedPositionStyle = useAnimatedStyle(() => {
    return isTop ? 
        {top: withTiming(stackOffset, {duration: 250})} : 
        {bottom: withTiming(stackOffset, {duration: 250})};
}, [stackOffset, isTop]);
```

```typescript
const swipeGesture = Gesture.Pan()
    .onStart(() => startX.value = translateX.value)
    .onUpdate((event) => {
        if (dismissible) {
            translateX.value = startX.value + event.translationX;
        }
    })
    .onEnd(() => {
        const shouldDismiss = Math.abs(translateX.value) > swipeThreshold;
        if (shouldDismiss && dismissible) {
            // Animate out and dismiss
            translateX.value = withTiming(translateX.value > 0 ? 300 : -300);
            opacity.value = withTiming(0);
            runOnJS(onDismiss)();
        } else {
            // Spring back to center
            translateX.value = withTiming(0);
        }
    });
```

## Error Handling

### Graceful Degradation

```typescript
// BannerManager error handling in removeBannerFromList
private removeBannerFromList(bannerId: string) {
    const bannerIndex = this.activeBanners.findIndex((b) => b.id === bannerId);
    if (bannerIndex >= 0) {
        const banner = this.activeBanners[bannerIndex];
        this.activeBanners.splice(bannerIndex, 1);
        
        this.clearBannerTimer(bannerId);
        
        if (banner.onDismiss) {
            try {
                banner.onDismiss();
            } catch {
                // Silent catch to ensure cleanup still runs
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Concurrent Update Management

```typescript
// Promise-chain queue prevents race conditions
private updateOverlay() {
    this.updateQueue = this.updateQueue.then(async () => {
        // All updates execute sequentially in order
        if (!this.activeBanners.length) {
            // Handle empty banner list...
            return;
        }
        
        // Update overlay with current banners...
        if (this.overlayVisible) {
            Navigation.updateProps(FLOATING_BANNER_OVERLAY_ID, {
                banners: bannersWithDismissProps,
                onDismiss: handleDismiss,
            });
        } else {
            showOverlay(/* ... */);
            this.overlayVisible = true;
        }
    });
}
```

**Benefits of Promise-Chain Queue**:
- Simpler implementation than state machine
- Automatic sequential execution
- Each update waits for previous one to complete
- No risk of race conditions when showing/hiding rapidly

### Dismiss Delay Cancellation

```typescript
// Cancel overlay dismiss when new banner is added during delay
private cancelDismissOverlay() {
    if (this.dismissOverlayTimer) {
        clearTimeout(this.dismissOverlayTimer);
        this.dismissOverlayTimer = null;
    }
    
    // Resolve the pending Promise to unblock the queue
    if (this.dismissOverlayResolve) {
        this.dismissOverlayResolve();
        this.dismissOverlayResolve = null;
    }
}
```

### Last Banner Immediate Dismissal

When the last banner is removed, the overlay is immediately updated with an empty banner list to clear the UI, then waits 2 seconds before dismounting the overlay container:

```typescript
private async updateOverlay() {
    // ... state management ...
    
    try {
        if (!this.activeBanners.length) {
            if (this.overlayVisible) {
                // Immediately clear UI by updating with empty array
                Navigation.updateProps(FLOATING_BANNER_OVERLAY_ID, {
                    banners: [],
                    onDismiss: () => {
                        // No-op: no banners to dismiss
                    },
                });

                // Wait 2 seconds before dismounting overlay
                await new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
                    this.dismissOverlayResolve = resolve;
                    this.dismissOverlayTimer = setTimeout(() => {
                        this.dismissOverlayResolve = null;
                        resolve();
                    }, OVERLAY_DISMISS_DELAY);
                });

                // Dismiss overlay container
                if (!this.activeBanners.length && this.overlayVisible) {
                    await dismissOverlay(FLOATING_BANNER_OVERLAY_ID);
                    this.overlayVisible = false;
                }
                this.dismissOverlayTimer = null;
            }
            return;
        }
        // ... rest of update logic ...
    }
}
```

This approach ensures:
- ✅ Last banner disappears from screen immediately
- ✅ Overlay container stays mounted for 2 seconds
- ✅ Prevents flickering if new banner appears during delay
- ✅ Maintains smooth UX for auto-hide scenarios

## Testing Strategy

### Unit Tests

The system includes comprehensive tests with **100% code coverage** covering:

1. **BannerManager Tests** (31 tests):
   - Singleton pattern verification
   - Multiple banner stacking and management
   - Per-banner auto-hide timers
   - **Promise-chain queue system** for concurrent updates

### Test Utilities

```typescript
// Mock banner configuration
const createMockBanner = (overrides = {}): BannerConfig => ({
    id: 'test-banner-1',
    title: 'Test Banner',
    message: 'This is a test message',
    type: 'info',
    dismissible: true,
    ...overrides,
});

// Manual timer control for testing async behavior
let timeoutId = 0;
type TimeoutCallback = () => void;
const timeoutCallbacks = new Map<number, TimeoutCallback>();

const mockSetTimeout = jest.spyOn(global, 'setTimeout')
    .mockImplementation((cb: TimeoutCallback) => {
        timeoutId++;
        timeoutCallbacks.set(timeoutId, cb);
        return timeoutId as unknown as NodeJS.Timeout;
    });

const runAllTimers = () => {
    const callbacks = Array.from(timeoutCallbacks.values());
    timeoutCallbacks.clear();
    callbacks.forEach((cb) => cb());
};

// Test concurrent updates with proper async handling
runAllTimers();
await Promise.resolve();
runAllTimers();
await Promise.resolve();
```

## Performance Considerations

### Memory Management

- Automatic per-banner timeout cleanup prevents memory leaks
- Map-based timer storage for efficient lookup and cleanup
- Singleton pattern reduces object creation
- Component memoization where appropriate
- 2-second dismiss delay prevents unnecessary overlay recreation

### Animation Performance

- Uses React Native Reanimated for 60fps animations
- Leverages native driver for smooth transitions
- Minimal re-renders through proper state management

### Gesture Performance

- React Native Gesture Handler for native gesture processing
- Optimized pan gesture handling
- Threshold-based dismiss logic

## Integration Points

### Network Connectivity

```typescript
// NetworkConnectivityManager integration
private updateBanner() {
    if (this.handleDisconnectedState()) return;
    if (this.handlePerformanceState()) return;
    if (this.handleConnectingState()) return;
    if (this.handleReconnectionState()) return;
    this.handleConnectedState();
}
```

### App Initialization

```typescript
// App startup integration
export async function initialize() {
    // ... other initialization
    NetworkConnectivityManager.init(activeServerUrl || null);
}
```

### Navigation System

```typescript
// Overlay system integration
showOverlay(
    Screens.FLOATING_BANNER,
    {banners: [configWithDismiss], onDismiss},
    {overlay: {interceptTouchOutside: false}},
    FLOATING_BANNER_OVERLAY_ID
);
```

## Best Practices

### 1. Banner Design

- Keep messages concise and actionable
- Use appropriate banner types (info, success, warning, error)
- Provide clear dismiss mechanisms
- Consider auto-hide for temporary messages

### 2. Timing

- Auto-hide success messages after 3-5 seconds
- Keep error messages visible until user dismisses
- Avoid banner spam with proper state management

### 3. Accessibility

- Ensure proper contrast ratios
- Provide meaningful text for screen readers
- Support keyboard navigation
- Test with assistive technologies

### 4. Performance

- Minimize banner content complexity
- Use custom content sparingly
- Clean up timeouts and listeners
- Test on lower-end devices

## Architecture Highlights

### Multi-Banner System ✅

The BannerManager now implements a robust multi-banner architecture:

- **Single overlay instance** - Only one floating-banner overlay exists, with visibility tracked by `overlayVisible` state
- **Banner stack management** - `activeBanners[]` array manages multiple concurrent banners
- **Efficient updates** - Uses `Navigation.updateProps()` to update existing overlay instead of recreating it
- **Individual auto-hide timers** - Each banner has its own timer stored in a `Map<string, NodeJS.Timeout>`
- **Race condition prevention** - Queue system with `UpdateState` enum handles concurrent calls
- **Flicker prevention** - 2-second delay before dismissing empty overlay prevents rapid dismiss/recreate cycles

#### Real-World Example
```
1. Low connectivity banner (bottom) → activeBanners: [connectivityBanner]
                                   → showOverlay()
2. Calls banner (top) added        → activeBanners: [connectivityBanner, callsBanner]
                                   → Navigation.updateProps()
3. Connectivity banner auto-hides  → activeBanners: [callsBanner]
                                   → Navigation.updateProps()
4. Calls banner dismissed          → activeBanners: []
                                   → Wait 2s
                                   → dismissOverlay()
```

This architecture eliminates race conditions and efficiently manages multiple concurrent banners.

## Future Enhancements

### Potential Improvements

Future enhancements could include:

- **Priority-based banner ordering** - Allow banners to specify display priority
- **Banner queuing** - Queue banners when too many are shown simultaneously
- **Animation customization** - Per-banner animation configurations
- **Action buttons** - Built-in support for action buttons in BannerItem

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **Banner not showing**:
   - Check `BannerManager.isBannerVisible()` to see if banners exist
   - Verify overlay system is initialized
   - Ensure banner config is valid
   - Check if banner has a unique ID

2. **Last banner takes 2 seconds to disappear**:
   - ✅ **Fixed**: The overlay now updates with an empty array immediately when the last banner is removed
   - The 2-second delay only applies to dismounting the overlay container (prevents flickering)
   - Banners should disappear from screen instantly when dismissed or auto-hidden

3. **Multiple banners stacking properly**:
   - ✅ **Fixed**: Implemented wrapper-based positioning system
   - Each banner is wrapped in an absolutely positioned `Animated.View`
   - Banners animate smoothly when others are added/removed with 250ms transitions
   - Consistent 8px spacing between all banners

4. **Animation glitches**:
   - Check React Native Reanimated setup
   - Verify gesture handler configuration
   - Test on physical devices

5. **Positioning issues**:
   - Verify safe area context is available
   - Check header height calculations
   - Test on different screen sizes

6. **Memory leaks**:
   - Ensure cleanup() is called on unmount
   - Check per-banner timeout management
   - Verify callback cleanup in error handlers

### Debug Tools

```typescript
// Check current banner state
console.log('Banner state:', {
    isVisible: BannerManager.isBannerVisible(),
    currentId: BannerManager.getCurrentBannerId(),
    // Note: activeBanners array is private, use multiple showBanner calls to test stacking
});

// Test single banner
BannerManager.showBanner({
    id: 'debug-banner',
    title: 'Debug',
    message: 'Testing positioning',
    type: 'info' as const
});

// Test banner stacking (currently has positioning issues)
BannerManager.showBanner({
    id: 'debug-banner-1',
    title: 'First',
    message: 'First banner',
    type: 'info',
    position: 'bottom'
});

BannerManager.showBanner({
    id: 'debug-banner-2',
    title: 'Second',
    message: 'Second banner',
    type: 'success',
    position: 'bottom'
});

// Test auto-hide with independent timers
BannerManager.showBannerWithAutoHide({
    id: 'auto-1',
    title: 'Auto Hide 1',
    message: 'Hides in 3s',
    type: 'info'
}, 3000);

BannerManager.showBannerWithAutoHide({
    id: 'auto-2',
    title: 'Auto Hide 2',
    message: 'Hides in 5s',
    type: 'success'
}, 5000);
```

- ✅ All positioning now handled by `useBannerGestureRootPosition` hook

**2. Moved Constants to Centralized Location**
- ✅ Created `BANNER_SPACING = 8` constant in `@constants/view`
- ✅ All view-related measurements now in one discoverable location
- ✅ `BANNER_TABLET_WIDTH_PERCENTAGE` exported via `testExports` from hook

### Architecture Achievements

This comprehensive floating banner system provides:

✅ **100% test coverage** across all components  
✅ **Efficient multi-banner management** with single overlay instance  
✅ **Race condition prevention** with queue system
