Microsoft's extension of React Native that lets developers build native Windows applications using JavaScript and React. It targets Windows 10+ devices including PCs, tablets, Xbox, and mixed reality, with a new Fabric renderer built on WinAppSDK/Composition.

Use cases

  • build native windows apps with react
  • target xbox with react native
  • share react native code across ios android and windows
  • build winui apps in javascript
  • port react native app to windows

When to choose

  • your team already knows React Native and needs Windows support
  • you want one codebase across mobile and Windows devices including Xbox

When to avoid

  • you need a pure .NET/C# codebase without JavaScript
  • you only target Windows with no React Native investment
