  React Native Web exists [0]. But I agree, having parts be third party doesn't mesh well with being a complete framework for building apps (on whatever platform you need).

  You mean necolas ? As far as I know, he's a Twitter engineer. But yeah, it's a fantastic project :)

  For the web app, the browser extension, and the Electron app, we'll use React Native for Web. To simplify their setup, we'll use Create React App, and customize it using CRACO — but you're free to use other React-based frameworks as well (e.g., NextJS).

  The React Native for Web homepage does a great job at highlighting why you should try it:

  This isn't really accurate. Presuming you're using react-native-web [1] (the most popular version of RN targeting the web, although there are others), it's essentially just a set of components and APIs, fulfilling RN's API, which sit on top of React DOM.

  So anything you could do in React.js, you can also do in RNWeb, as it's a superset of React.js.

  Of course, you'd need to use the RN components if you want to share code between web and native mobile. But there's nothing stopping you reaching a high degree of code re-use, and/or using React.js components for the web-only portion of a RNWeb project.

• Why does twitter.com use <div role=button> instead of <button>?
  1 project | reddit.com/r/webdev | 29 Jul 2021

  The reason for this is that Twitter is built with React Native Web. More context as to why RNW is doing that here

• Why does twitter.com use div role=button instead of button?

  Afaik twitter uses (some form of) react-native-web.

  So I guess it's because: https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web/pull/556

  Basically some browsers don't support display flex on certain elements like button, using a div instead of a button solves that issue.

  Generally: I would suggest to use a button tag unless you run into issues (and know what you are doing).

  I don't think using `

  ` is perse worse as long as you implement all the behaviour and styling of the button element like focus, keyboard events and similar.

• Feature Request: Artos WebApp? :)

  FYI - I'm not sure about your tech stack but if you are using react-native for the android app, you could probably re-use some parts of it for the web as well: https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web .

  Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but there’s also React Native Web (https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web - first Google result) which can make it easier to write for the web in your own idiom. I haven’t used it yet, but I would consider it for the right thing.

  Or, you can build your web app using and components from React Native for Web, and now your presentational components work in both apps, too. That's how Twitter build their web and mobile apps, but using this library is a decision that needs to be made early in a product's development.
