React Native WebView — Loading HTML in React Native

In React Native, WebViews enable access to any web portal in the mobile app itself. In other words, a web view allows us to open the web URLs inside the app interface. While React Native provides us with a built-it web view component, but we are going to use react-native-webview plugin in this tutorial, since it is more powerful. React Native WebView is a modern, well-supported, and cross-platform WebView for React Native.

The built-in Webview from React Native is to be deprecated pretty soon based on this document. Hence, this plugin serves as the replacement for the built-in web view. This plugin is a third-party plugin supported by the react-native community.
