## What it is
Stackflow is a mobile-first stack navigator framework for JavaScript/TypeScript that brings native-like stack navigation UX (screen stacking, scroll preservation, iOS-style swipe-back) to web apps and webviews. It features a headless core with a composable plugin system, framework-agnostic architecture (currently React), and SSR support.

## Use cases
- implement mobile-style stack navigation in a React web app
- build hybrid apps with webviews that feel native
- preserve scroll state when navigating between stacked screens
- add iOS-style swipe-back gesture navigation to a webview
- share one codebase between mobile webview and desktop app
- build a headless navigation state layer with custom UI
- server-side render an app with stack navigation

## When to choose
- you need native-like stack navigation UX in webviews or hybrid apps
- you want a headless navigator you can fully customize with plugins
- you need SSR support and TypeScript-first APIs
- your team builds mobile web apps that must feel like native iOS/Android apps

## When to avoid
- you need a full native mobile app with true native navigation (use React Navigation or native SDKs)
- you only need simple top-level routing in a standard web app
- you use Next.js and rely on its router integration, which is not recommended by the project
- you need a non-React frontend framework integration today
