React native HTML entities

Here's how to import and use a specific subpackage of Entities if the example in 'html-entities' README, which uses require(), won't work for you.

import {Html5Entities} from 'html-entities';

const entities = new Html5Entities();
entities.decode(stringToBeDecoded);

You should be able to use something like html-entities to decode the text before rendering:

const entities = new Entities();
entities.decode('&#8222') // "„" (double low quotation mark)
