react-dom
The react-dom
package contains methods that are only supported for the web applications (which run in the browser DOM environment). They are not supported for React Native.
React DOM APIs
These APIs can be imported from your components. They are rarely used:
createPortal
lets you render child components in a different part of the DOM tree.flushSync
lets you force React to flush a state update and update the DOM synchronously.
React DOM entry points
The react-dom
package provides two additional entry points:
react-dom/client
contains APIs to render React components on the client (in the browser).react-dom/server
contains APIs to render React components on the server.
