React Native Safari Extension
What is it?
An Expo Config Plugin that allows you to add a Safari Extension to your iOS apps. This plugin allows you to manage your extension without having to open Xcode.

Choose a workflow
There are two workflows for using this plugin:
💯 Basic Workflow
Build your own extension using HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript.
🚀 Experimental Workflow
Render React Native web inside of your extension. This uses Expo web and Metro to output your React Native compononents inside of the extension popup. You can use Fast Refresh to see your changes in real time.
Which workflow should I use?
If you are building a simple extension, the Basic Workflow is probably the best option. If it's more complex, you may want to use the Experimental Workflow (it's also more fun).
| Feature / Workflow | Experimental Workflow | Basic Workflow |
|---|---|---|
Manage files outside of ios/ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Expo Prebuild | ✅ | ✅ |
| Fast Refresh | ✅ | |
| Expo Web | ✅ |
