## Native Components
In Android development, you write views in Kotlin or Java; in iOS development, you use Swift or Objective-C. With React Native, you can invoke these views with JavaScript using React components. At runtime, React Native creates the corresponding Android and iOS views for those components. Because React Native components are backed by the same views as Android and iOS, React Native apps look, feel, and perform like any other apps. We call these platform-backed components **Fabric Components.** [_Fabric_](architecture/fabric-renderer) is the name of the React Native renderer, therefore components that are rendered via Fabric are called Fabric Components.

## Core Components
React Native has many Core Components for everything form controls to activity indicators. You can find them all [documented in the API section](components-and-apis). You will mostly work with the following Core Components:
