🚀 I always wanted to just run some React web code in a native app—that's why I created the new "use dom" directive! ⚡️ Try it today in @Expo SDK 52 and watch my full React Universe Summit | June 23, 2026 talk to learn more...

🔗 Talk SDK 52 Demo app (try it on TestFlight)

@expo @reactuniverse_ Amazing, but why haven't we this by default?

@expo @reactuniverse_ seems obvious in hindsight, it’s on by default in SDK 52!

@expo @reactuniverse_ Always blows my mind.

@expo @reactuniverse_ I am waiting the stable version 🔥

@expo @reactuniverse_ does/will server components work?

@expo @reactuniverse_ It will. Current thinking is "use dom" will start as a client component, these can import server actions and invoke them to render server components. This is still a work in progress.

@expo @reactuniverse_ Tested that is really nice feeling. Some problems to push most dom components to Apple/ Google stores ?

@expo @reactuniverse_ lots of apps use a similar, but less native technique.

@expo @reactuniverse_ I signed up for the Apple Developer Program. By the end of the year, I want to release a simple mobile app on iOS. Can you give me an idea as an application? I can use Expo Dom Components.

@expo @reactuniverse_ build something you find personally interesting, then share it with friends/online. I personally like making apps that connect to physical peripherals and auxiliary devices.
