React Native for macOS
Build native macOS apps with React.
See the official React Native website for an introduction to React Native.
React Native is a framework developed by Facebook that enables you to build world-class application experiences on native platforms using a consistent developer experience based on JavaScript and React. The focus of React Native is on developer efficiency across all the platforms you care about - learn once, write anywhere.
This repository is a working fork of facebook/react-native that adds support for the official React Native for macOS implementation from Microsoft.
You can read more about the macOS implementation on our website - React Native for Windows + macOS

React Native for Windows + macOS has its own separate documentation site where Windows and macOS specific information, like API docs and blog updates live. We are bootstrapping documentation for macOS at this time, tune in for updates.
