The first declarative React Native router
React Native Router (v4.x) provides a different API over react-navigation, making it easier for users to define all routes in one central place and navigate between screens efficiently. This tool inherits limitations and changes from updated versions, with different versions based on React Navigation v1.x to v5.x.
To install React Native Router (v4.x), follow these steps:
npm install react-native-screens
npm install react-native-gesture-handler
npm install react-native-reanimated
npm install react-native-safe-area-context
npm install @react-native-community/masked-view
npm install react-native-router-flux
React Native Router (v4.x) simplifies the navigation and communication between screens by providing a centralized approach to defining routes. By separating navigation logic from presentation, users can easily manage transitions and interactions using a powerful API. However, it’s essential to note the version compatibility with React Navigation and the dependencies required for installation.
