Convert your website into a native app with Expo DOM Components

React Native developers often face challenges when migrating web applications to native apps due to the absence of HTML, CSS, and browser APIs in the native environment. Expo has introduced DOM components as a solution to this, allowing developers to incrementally migrate web applications to native apps by marking modules with the "use dom" directive. This feature enables web code to run within native apps using a proxy component based on WebView, thus providing native performance while maintaining web functionality. DOM components facilitate the use of existing web libraries, making it easier to experiment with new features without dealing with complex native builds. However, they come with limitations such as performance issues on touch screens and the need for separate React contexts. Despite these challenges, DOM components promise to improve the migration process from React websites to React Native apps and will see continued enhancements, such as better integration with the Expo Router and optimizations for performance and resource sharing.
