React Native
Learn once, write anywhere.

React Native is an open-source framework for building native mobile apps for Android, iOS, and other platforms using JavaScript and React. It renders React components to native platform UI elements, giving apps the same look and performance as apps built with platform-native code. Developers can use existing React knowledge to build truly native experiences without compromising user experience.
React primitives written in JavaScript are rendered to native platform UI components, using the same native APIs as platform-specific apps.
