## What it is
React Native Screens exposes native navigation container components (like native screen stacks and fragments) to React Native apps. It is designed as a dependency for full navigation libraries such as React Navigation and Expo Router rather than standalone use.

## Use cases
- use native screen stacks in a react native app
- improve navigation performance and memory usage in react native
- make react native navigation behave like a native app
- support navigation on tvOS, visionOS, Windows, and web
- integrate native navigation with react navigation or expo router

## When to choose
- you use React Navigation or Expo Router and want native navigation primitives
- you need native performance and behavior for screen transitions on iOS and Android
- you target multiple platforms including tvOS, visionOS, Windows, or web

## When to avoid
- you need a standalone navigation solution with routing APIs - use React Navigation instead
- your project does not use React Native

## Facets
