SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Running web code inside native Expo apps can be challenging; DOM components provide a bridge to render web libraries in a webview on native while preserving native behavior on web.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Web-to-native integration
  • Migration-friendly for web code
  • Supports common web libraries in DOM components (charts, syntax highlighters)
  • Real-world scenario: bring a React web chart into a native Expo app without rewriting

Quick Start

Create a simple DOM component that renders a web-based chart inside a native Expo app.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run web code inside a native Expo app?

To run web code inside a native Expo app, you can use a DOM component that wraps the web code, rendering it inside a webview on native platforms while preserving standard behavior on web.

Can I migrate an existing web library to React Native without rewriting it?

You can migrate existing web libraries to React Native without rewriting by wrapping them in a DOM component, which bridges complex HTML/CSS layouts and libraries like charts directly into your Expo application.

How does Expo DOM handle components on the web versus native platforms?

Expo DOM handles components by rendering them as-is on the web, while wrapping them in a webview when running on native platforms, ensuring safe operation through clear DOM-context boundaries.

What types of web libraries are supported in Expo DOM components?

Expo DOM components support common web libraries such as charts and syntax highlighters, allowing you to integrate complex HTML and CSS layouts into your native application without needing a rewrite.

What are the limitations of using webviews to render web code in React Native?

The limitation of using webviews to render web code in React Native is that components operate within strict DOM-context boundaries to ensure safe operation, meaning web code runs isolated inside a webview rather than as native UI elements.
