1. Introduction?
NativeBase is a mobile-first, component library for React & React Native. Version 3.0 ships with complete ARIA integration, support for utility props and nearly 40 components that are consistent across Android, iOS and Web. Fast-track your dev process with NativeBase 3.0.
Recommended by Awesome React Native
NativeBase was added to the list of Frameworks of Awesome React Native and it is used by numerous React lovers across the world.
2. Motivation
Building with React Native from scratch is a tedious process with multiple steps such as adding styling, interactions, state management, responsiveness, accessibility, etc. We wanted to build and ship accessible, high-quality apps quickly.
Our inspirations include Material UI, Chakra UI, Ant Design, Braid Design System, Bootstrap, TailwindCSS & Flutter.
3. Features
Out of the Box Accessibility
Integrated with React ARIA and React Native ARIA, which provides React hooks. This enables you to build accessible design systems in no time.
Supporting Utility Props

Rich Component Library
NativeBase offers around 40 components so you can build seamlessly. It includes button, checkbox, flex, stack and more.
Highly Themeable
Themeability is one of the core elements of NativeBase. You can customise your app theme and component styles to your heart's content.
Available for Both Mobile and Web
NativeBase 3.0 is powered by React Native Web so you can build consistent UIs across Web, Android and iOS.
Responsiveness Made Easy
Instead of manually adding responsiveness, NativeBase 3.0 allows you to provide object and array values to add responsive styles.

Building apps with a dark mode setting just got a whole lot easier. NativeBase is now optimised for light and dark modes.
