# Intro

React Native is a very powerful framework that can enable you to build cross-platform mobile apps. But now with React Native for web you can create universal apps that run everywhere!&#x20;

React Native for web was created by [Nicolas Gallagher](https://github.com/necolas) to build the Twitter Lite PWA. I've been integrating it into the Expo eco-system so that any complex native API (with web support) can be used in a universal capacity.&#x20;

I've collected web specific React Native information into this one location to ease the entry or conversion process.

If you have any questions feel free to tweet at me [@Baconbrix](https://mobile.twitter.com/Baconbrix) or [@Expo](https://mobile.twitter.com/Expo).
