React NativeLearn once, write anywhere
Open Source
React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform
Stories
React Native is an open-source framework developed by Meta (Facebook) that enables developers to build mobile apps using JavaScript and React, then compile them into native code for iOS and Android.
Unlike hybrid frameworks that rely on WebView, React Native uses a bridge architecture to communicate directly with native components β€” delivering near-native performance and fluid user experiences.
