In React Native, you cannot directly use iframes like you would in a web application. Instead, you can use the WebView component to embed web content within your React Native application.


Here is an example of how you can use WebView to display a web page within your React Native application:

import React from 'react';
import { View, WebView } from 'react-native';

const MyWebView = () => {
  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <WebView
        source={{ uri: 'https://www.example.com' }}
        style={{ flex: 1 }}
      />
    </View>
  );
};

export default MyWebView;


In this example, the WebView component is used to display the web page located at 'https://www.example.com'. You can customize the appearance and behavior of the WebView by styling it and passing additional props.


Keep in mind that using WebView may have potential security risks, as it allows you to load and display arbitrary web content within your app. Make sure you trust the content you are loading and take appropriate precautions to protect your app and users.
