React Navigation
Overview
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.
API Selection
React Navigation offers two API - object-based `Static API` and component-based `Dynamic API`.
- **Existing Apps**: Check the current navigation setup and follow the same API style when using the references
- **New Apps**: If the app does not have an existing navigation setup yet, prefer `Static API`
When to Apply
Reference this skill when:
- Building navigation UI patterns such as stacks, tabs, drawers, sheets etc.
- Configuring headers and other built-in navigator UI
- Handling safe areas and insets in navigation UI
