A library that provides native primitives to represent screens instead of plain React Native View components for better operating system behavior and screen optimizations.
react-native-screens provides native primitives to represent screens instead of plain <View> components To better take advantage of operating system behavior and optimizations around screens. This capability is used by library authors and is unlikely to be used directly by most app developers. It also provides the native components needed for React Navigation's createNativeStackNavigator.
Note: See
react-native-screensissue tracker if you encounter any problems.
- npx expo install react-native-screensIf you are installing this in an existing React Native app, start by installing expo in your project. Then, follow the additional instructions provided by the library's README or documentation.
The complete API reference and documentation are available in the react-native-screens README.
To use the native stack navigator if you are using React Navigation, see createNativeStackNavigator documentation.
