id="content"></a><h1><a class="anchor" name="platform-specific-code"></a>Platform Specific Code <a class="hash-link" href="docs/platform-specific-code.html#platform-specific-code">#</a></h1><div><p>When building a cross-platform app, you&#x27;ll want to re-use as much code as possible. Scenarios may arise where it makes sense for the code to be different, for example you may want to implement separate visual components for iOS and Android.</p><p>React Native provides two ways to easily organize your code and separate it by platform:</p><ul><li>Using the <a href="docs/platform-specific-code.html#platform-module" target="_blank"><code>Platform</code> module</a>.</li><li>Using <a href="docs/platform-specific-code.html#platform-specific-extensions" target="_blank">platform-specific file extensions</a>.</li></ul><p>Certain components may have properties that work on one platform only. All of these props are annotated with <code>@platform</code> and have a small badge next to them on the website.</p><h2><a class="anchor" name="platform-module"></a>Platform module <a class="hash-link" href="docs/platform-specific-code.html#platform-module">#</a></h2><p>React Native provides a module that detects the platform in which the app is running. You can use the detection logic to implement platform-specific code. Use this option when only small parts of a component are platform-specific.</p><div class="prism language-javascript">import <span class="token punctuation">{</span> Platform<span class="token punctuation">,</span> StyleSheet <span class="token punctuation">}</span> from <span class="token string">&#x27;react-native&#x27;</span><span class="token punctuation">;</span>

React Native will detect when a file has a <code>.ios.</code> or <code>.android.</code> extension and load the relevant platform file when required from other components.</p><p>For example, say you have the following files in your project:</p><div class="prism language-javascript">BigButton<span class="token punctuation">.</span>ios<span class="token punctuation">.</span>js
BigButton<span class="token punctuation">.</span>android<span class="token punctuation">.</span>js</div><p>You can then require the component as follows:</p><div class="prism language-javascript">const BigButton <span class="token operator">=</span> <span class="token function">require<span class="token punctuation">(</span></span><span class="token string">&#x27;./BigButton&#x27;</span><span class="token punctuation">)</span><span class="token punctuation">;</span></div><p>React Native will automatically pick up the right file based on the running platform.</p></div><div class="docs-prevnext"><a class="docs-prev" href="docs/upgrading.html#content">← Prev</a><a class="docs-next" href="docs/gesture-responder-system.html#content">Next →</a></div><p class="edit-page-block">You can <a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/docs/PlatformSpecificInformation.md">edit the content above on GitHub</a> and send us a pull request!</p><div class="survey"><div class="survey-image"></div><p>Recently, we have been working hard to make the documentation better based on your feedback.
