React Native has always focused on helping developers reuse knowledge across platforms. What started with Android and iOS has steadily expanded to Apple TV, Windows, macOS, and even the web with react-strict-dom. In 2021, the Many Platform Vision post outlined a future where React Native could adapt to new devices and form factors without fragmenting the ecosystem.

The React Native Blog offers insights, updates, and tutorials on React Native development, a popular framework for building cross-platform mobile applications using JavaScript and React. Developers can learn about React Native best practices, new features, and community announcements, as well as discover tips for optimizing performance and debugging mobile apps. Additionally, the blog covers topics such as navigation, state management, and integrating native modules, providing resources for mobile app developers.

React Native now officially supports Meta Quest VR devices, which run Meta Horizon OS (an Android-based OS). Developers can get started using Expo Go on the headset with minimal changes from standard Android workflows. The post covers step-by-step setup with Expo, development builds for native features, platform-specific configuration via the `expo-horizon-core` plugin, library compatibility considerations (notably the absence of Google Play Services), and VR-specific UX/design guidance around input methods like controllers and hand tracking. Bare React Native projects are also supported with manual Android configuration.
