Guide for building navigation UIs with React Navigation.
This skill only applies to React Navigation 7. The API and patterns may not work with different versions.
React Navigation offers two API - object-based Static API and component-based Dynamic API.
Static APIReference this skill when:
| File | Description |
|---|---|
| stacks.md | Stack based navigation |
| form-sheet.md | Bottom sheet and form sheets |
| bottom-tabs.md | Cross-platform bottom tabs |
| native-bottom-tabs.md | Native bottom tabs |
| material-top-tabs.md | Swipeable Top tabs |
| drawers.md | Drawer navigation and sidebars |
| header.md | Configuring headers |
| safe-areas.md | Safe-area handling |
| Problem | Start With |
|---|---|
| Showing screens and modals in a stack | stacks.md |
| Showing bottom sheets or form sheets | form-sheet.md |
| Showing screens in bottom tabs or responsive sidebars with web support | bottom-tabs.md |
| Showing screens in native tabs on iOS & Android | native-bottom-tabs.md |
| Showing content in swipeable top tabs | material-top-tabs.md |

| Configuring the header in bottom tab or drawer navigator | header.md |
| Handling safe-area such as status bar, header insets, tab bar insets etc. | safe-areas.md |
Assesses whether and how an existing mobile product should migrate to React Native. Use when auditing one or more product repositories for migration readiness, including products whose iOS, Android, and other clients live in separate directories or repositories; choosing brownfield, greenfield, or a checkpoint-based path; defining a representative trial; or preparing a baseline and ROI decision before implementation. When product scope or material evidence is unavailable, grills the stakeholder with exactly one question per turn instead of sending a questionnaire.
Implements an accepted incremental brownfield migration from native iOS or Android to React Native or Expo using @callstack/react-native-brownfield. Use after the brownfield path has been selected, when setting up the integration, packaging XCFramework or AAR artifacts, or adding React Native surfaces to native hosts.
Provides React Native performance optimization guidelines for FPS, TTI, bundle size, memory leaks, re-renders, and animations. Applies to tasks involving Hermes optimization, JS thread blocking, bridge overhead, FlashList, native modules, or debugging jank and frame drops.

Reviews React Native TV apps for focus/D-pad navigation, 10-foot UI layout, TV playback/DRM integration, low-memory TV performance, and TV accessibility. Use when building, debugging, or reviewing react-native-tvos, Expo TV, Amazon Vega/Kepler, or React Native web TV targets where the issue depends on remote input, TV focus, TV packaging, TV hardware, or TV playback constraints.
Scaffolds React Native libraries with create-react-native-library for standalone libraries or local native modules and views. Use when creating or working on React Native libraries or adding native functionality in an existing app.
