Deep Linking in React Native

Deep Linking :-

In react native refers to way of directing users to specific content or screens within a mobile app using a URL(uniform Resource locator). instead of just opening the app’s homepage or main screen, Deep linking allows you to navigate the users to a specific place,such as a particular product page, a profile, or a specific feature with in the app.

Key concept :-

  1. URL(uniform resource code) :- Deep links look like regular URLs but specific to the app. for example:

    → myapp://profile/123 could open a user’s profile in the app,where 123 is the userID.(this is custom URL scheme)

    → https://myapp.com/product/456 might open the app to a specific product page with the product ID 456. (this is Universal links /App link that can either open your app or if the app is not installed, open the content in a web browser)
