š Welcome to
@expo/next-adapter
Next.js plugin for using React Native modules

Setup
$3
Ensure you have expo, next, @expo/next-adapter installed in your project.
$3
Configure Next.js to transform language features:
Next.js with swc. (Recommended)
When using Next.js with SWC, you can configure the babel.config.js to only account for native.
``js`
// babel.config.js
module.exports = function (api) {
api.cache(true);
return {
presets: ['babel-preset-expo'],
};
};
You will also have to force Next.js to use SWC by adding the following to your next.config.js:
`js`
// next.config.js
module.exports = {
experimental: {
forceSwcTransforms: true,
},
};
Next.js with Babel. (Not recommended)
Adjust your babel.config.js to conditionally add next/babel when bundling with Webpack for web.
`js`
// babel.config.js
module.exports = function (api) {
// Detect web usage (this may change in the future if Next.js changes the loader)
const isWeb = api.caller(
caller =>
caller && (caller.name === 'babel-loader' || caller.name === 'next-babel-turbo-loader')
);
return {
presets: [
// Only use next in the browser, it'll break your native project
isWeb && require('next/babel'),
'babel-preset-expo',
].filter(Boolean),
};
};
$3
Add the following to your next.config.js:
`js
const { withExpo } = require('@expo/next-adapter');
module.exports = withExpo({
// transpilePackages is a Next.js +13.1 feature.
// older versions can use next-transpile-modules
transpilePackages: [
'react-native',
'expo',
// Add more React Native / Expo packages here...
],
});
`
The fully qualified Next.js config may look like:
`js
const { withExpo } = require('@expo/next-adapter');
/* @type {import('next').NextConfig} /
const nextConfig = withExpo({
reactStrictMode: true,
swcMinify: true,
transpilePackages: [
'react-native',
'expo',
// Add more React Native / Expo packages here...
],
experimental: {
forceSwcTransforms: true,
},
});
module.exports = nextConfig;
`
$3
The package react-native-web builds on the assumption of reset CSS styles, here's how you reset styles in Next.js using the pages/ directory.
Required
pages/_document.js file
`js
import { Children } from 'react';
import Document, { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from 'next/document';
import { AppRegistry } from 'react-native';
// Follows the setup for react-native-web:
// https://necolas.github.io/react-native-web/docs/setup/#root-element
// Plus additional React Native scroll and text parity styles for various
// browsers.
// Force Next-generated DOM elements to fill their parent's height
const style =
html, body, #__next {
-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
}
#__next {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
}
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth;
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
}
body {
/ Allows you to scroll below the viewport; default value is visible /
overflow-y: auto;
overscroll-behavior-y: none;
text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
-ms-overflow-style: scrollbar;
};
export default class MyDocument extends Document {
static async getInitialProps({ renderPage }) {
AppRegistry.registerComponent('main', () => Main);
const { getStyleElement } = AppRegistry.getApplication('main');
const page = await renderPage();
const styles = [
,
getStyleElement(),
];
return { ...page, styles: Children.toArray(styles) };
}
render() {
return (
);
}
}
`
Required pages/_app.js file
js
import Head from 'next/head';export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
return (
<>
);
}
`Transpiling modules
By default, modules in the React Native ecosystem are not transpiled to run in web browsers. React Native relies on advanced caching in Metro to reload quickly. Next.js uses Webpack, which does not have the same level of caching, so by default, no node modules are transpiled. You will have to manually mark every module you want to transpile with the
option in next.config.js:`js
const { withExpo } = require('@expo/next-adapter');module.exports = withExpo({
experimental: {
transpilePackages: [
// NOTE: Even though
react-native is never used in Next.js,
// you need to list react-native because react-native-web
// is aliased to . Adding react-native-web will not work.
'react-native',
'expo',
// Add more React Native / Expo packages here...
],
},
});
`Notice
Using Next.js for the web means you will be bundling with the Next.js Webpack config. This will lead to some core differences in how you develop your app vs your website.
Troubleshooting
$3
Figure out which module has the import statement and add it to the
option in next.config.js:`js
const { withExpo } = require('@expo/next-adapter');module.exports = withExpo({
experimental: {
transpilePackages: [
'react-native',
'expo',
// Add failing package here, and restart the server...
],
},
});
