Learn once, write anywhere: Create native apps for Android, iOS, and more using React Getting Started · Learn the Basics · Showcase · Contribute · Community · Support # React Native React Native lets you build native apps using [React](https://react.dev/).

React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors.
