This release introduces improved accessibility features and new documentation. It includes relatively minor breaking changes.

Breaking changes

  • React 17 is a peer dependency.
  • The I18nManager API has removed the isRTL and doLeftAndRightSwapInRTL properties. They must now be accessed using the getConstants() method, which returns an object with the same properties. This was an undocumented breaking change in a previous version of React Native.
  • The focusable prop now determines whether an element appears in the keyboard tab flow.
  • The hrefAttrs prop has been added to Text and View. The value is an object with rel, target, and download properties. This replaces the undocumented rel and target props.
  • The automatic addition of rel="noopener" to anchors has been removed.
  • The Linking.openURL(url) API now opens the url in new tab.
  • The Linking API now includes the addEventListener methods.
  • The deprecated importantForAccessibility prop has been removed. Use accessibilityHidden instead.
  • The undocumented data-focusable attribute has also been removed from rendered DOM nodes.
  • The undocumented disabled prop has been removed from View and Text; use accessibilityDisabled instead.

New features

  • Pressable has added onHoverIn and onHoverOut props.
  • All ARIA properties are now supported via equivalent accessibility* props. The undocumented support for aria-* prop forwarding remains and will be removed in a future version.
  • Additional accessibilityRole values are mapped to HTML element equivalents.
  • CSS aspectRatio property is now available in browsers with support.

Deprecations

  • The accessible prop is deprecated and will be removed in the next minor release. React Native for Web will follow React Native for Windows/macOS in removing this prop. Use focusable instead.

Documentation

This release will include a rewrite of the documentation site and interactive examples.

The examples will be embedded in relevant pages via a Next.js-powered codesandbox, making it easy for people to fork the example app from their browsers.
