Cross Platform React
summary
React Native commits to aligning with web standards by evolving APIs (shape, behavior, and new web capabilities) so UI code can be shared rather than reimplemented. The new architecture plus platform ports (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, VR) already powers Account Center, a single codebase shipping to web and VR, cutting duplicate work and boosting engineer productivity. Expect convergence of defaults (flexbox behavior, event semantics), fewer platform-specific hacks, and better web performance versus user-space shims as native APIs align with web standards and share more UI code.
