React Native macOS (ex react-native-desktop)
Build macOS desktop applications using React Native.
Project Catalyst (macOS 10.15+)
As Apple announced Project Catalyst it does make sense to use just the React Native with macOS target enabled. The details will come soon.
<View>
<Button onPress={() => alert('clicked!')} />
</View>
Getting Started
Node 4.x+, OS X 10.11+ required.
Previous React Native experience is highly recommended.
$ npm install react-native-macos-cli -g
$ react-native-macos init MyProject
$ cd MyProject
$ react-native-macos run-macos
If you want to add macOS target to the existing iOS/Android/Windows project, make the steps above, merge this new folder into your current React Native project, then put rn-cli.config.js in the root.
Documentation
Since React Native macOS is just a fork, you can follow the same instructions on the React Native Documentation.
Disclaimer
React Native macOS is a fork of React Native for iOS. The project is still a fairly new so proceed at your own risk.
