Why avoid direct DOM access with React Native Web?

Direct DOM access breaks the abstraction layer of React Native Web, making your code non-portable and incompatible with native mobile platforms like iOS and Android.

Can I use standard HTML tags with this skill?

No, this skill promotes using React Native primitives like View, Text, and Pressable to ensure cross-platform compatibility and maintain a unified codebase across web and mobile.

Does this skill support TypeScript?

Yes, it includes patterns for using React Native's built-in types, such as ViewStyle and TextStyle, to ensure robust type safety during development.

How does this handle platform-specific styles?

It utilizes the Platform module and Platform.select method to define specific styles or logic for web, iOS, and Android within a single, cohesive style object.

Mobile Development

Builds high-performance, cross-platform web applications using React Native primitives and unified API patterns.

About

The React Native Web Core skill provides Claude with the specialized knowledge needed to develop universal web applications using the React Native API. It emphasizes the use of platform-agnostic primitives such as View, Text, and Pressable to ensure codebases remain portable between web and mobile environments. By leveraging best practices for the Platform module, TypeScript integration, and accessibility, this skill enables developers to create professional, scalable applications that maintain consistent behavior and design across all platforms without direct DOM manipulation or traditional CSS.
