October 23, 2024 · 22 min read The React Team @reactjs / @reactnative React Native 0.76 with the New Architecture by default is now available on npm! In the 0.76 release blog post, we shared a list of significant changes included in this version. In this post, we provide an overview of the New Architecture and how it shapes the future of React Native. The New Architecture adds full support for modern React features, including Suspense, Transitions, automatic batching, and useLayoutEffect. The New Architecture also includes new Native Module and Native Component systems that let you write type-safe code with direct access to native interfaces without a bridge. This release is the result of a ground-up rewrite of React Native we’ve been working on since 2018, and we’ve taken extra care to make the New Architecture a gradual migration for most apps. In 2021, we created the New Architecture Working Group to collaborate with the community on ensuring a smooth upgrade experience for the entire React ecosystem. Most apps will be able to adopt React Native 0.76 with the same level of effort as any other release. The most popular React Native libraries already support the New Architecture. The New Architecture also includes an automatic interoperability layer to enable backward compatibility with libraries targeting the old architecture.
