# @copilotkit/react-native
Headless React Native bindings for CopilotKit. Provides a lightweight provider and re-exports platform-agnostic hooks -- no DOM, CSS, or web framework dependencies. You build the chat UI with standard React Native components.
## Installation
```bash
npm install @copilotkit/react-native
```
## Polyfills
React Native's JS runtime (Hermes) lacks several Web APIs that CopilotKit depends on. Import the polyfills **before any other code** in your entry point:
```js
// index.js
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills";
import { AppRegistry } from "react-native";
import App from "./App";
import { name as appName } from "./app.json";
AppRegistry.registerComponent(appName, () => App);
```
If you already polyfill some of these APIs, you can import only what you need:
```js
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills/streams";
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills/encoding";
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills/crypto";
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills/dom";
import "@copilotkit/react-native/polyfills/location";
```
## Quick start
```tsx
import { CopilotKitProvider, useAgent, useCopilotKit } from "@copilotkit/react-native";
export default function App() {
return (
<CopilotKitProvider runtimeUrl="https://your-server/api/copilotkit">
<ChatScreen />
</CopilotKitProvider>
);
}
```
Re-exports hooks from `@copilotkit/react-core`: `useAgent`, `useFrontendTool`, `useComponent`, `useHumanInTheLoop`, `useInterrupt`, `useSuggestions`, `useConfigureSuggestions`, `useAgentContext`, `useThreads`, and `useCopilotKit`.
