The latest version of React Navigation now has a new unstable API to automatically navigate to the correct screen after a conditional render (e.g., if a screen was opened via a deep link, but was behind auth):

UNSTABLE_routeNamesChangeBehavior="lastUnhandled"

Support for PlatformColor, DynamicColorIOS & CSS custom properties is coming to React Navigation's theming system 💅

Currently, it only supports plain color strings. But this will enable using design system tokens defined in native code or CSS without needing to redeclare them.

Do you use React Navigation devtools?

It should now display the stack trace correctly. So you can easily see where the navigation originated from.

We recently updated our testing guide with recommendations and examples. Are there any use cases that you'd like to be documented?
