React Native enables building truly native mobile apps for Android and iOS (and beyond) using the React programming model. It renders JavaScript to native UI and provides core platform-agnostic components like View, Text, and Image that map to native controls, enabling native user experiences. The project is maintained by Meta and driven by a large community, with tooling and ecosystem support through Expo and extensions to Windows, macOS, and the web.
