On June 6, we came together in Wrocław for the React Universe Meetup, a night dedicated to React Native and the wider React ecosystem. One of the talks that sparked real interest was A Native Navigation in the JavaScript World by Tymoteusz Boba from Software Mansion.

In this session, Tymoteusz breaks down how navigation really works in React Native, and why libraries like ^{react-navigation} and ^{Expo Router} rely on ^{react-native-screens} under the hood. You’ll walk away with a clearer picture of what this native module does, how it improves performance, and why it's become such a key part of the navigation stack in modern apps.
