# React Native WebView - a Modern, Cross-Platform WebView for React Native

**React Native WebView** is a modern, well-supported, and cross-platform WebView for React Native. It is intended to be a replacement for the built-in WebView (which will be [removed from core](https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/pull/3)).

## Platforms Supported

* [x] iOS
* [x] Android
* [ ] Windows 10 (coming soon)

## Installation

```
$ npm install --save react-native-webview
$ react-native link react-native-webview
```

## Usage

Import the `WebView` component from `react-native-webview` and use it like so:

```jsx
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native'
import { WebView } from 'react-native-webview'

// ...
class MyWebComponent extends Component {
  render () {
    return (
      <WebView
        src={{uri: "https://infinite.red"}}
        style={{marginTop: 20}}
      />
    )
  }
}
```

Additional properties are supported and will be added here; for now, refer to the previous React Native WebView documentation for more.

## Migrate from React Native core WebView to React Native WebView

Simply install React Native WebView and then use it in place of the core WebView. Their APIs are currently identical.

### Contributor Notes

* I'm currently shimming `ViewAccessibility`, `deprecatedPropType`, and `DeprecatedViewPropTypes` because I'm building my test app for React Native 0.56.0. If I upgrade to a version that exports these and we agree to only support that version going forward, then I'll remove them and pull in from React Native core. You can find these shims in `./js/shims`.
