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.
