To install react-tv (React Renderer):

$ yarn add react-tv

Platform

When building a cross-platform TV app, you'll want to re-use as much code as possible. You'll probably have different scenarios where different code might be necessary.
For instance, you may want to implement separated visual components for LG-WebOS and Samsung-Tizen.

React-TV provides the Platform module to easily organize your code and separate it by platform:

import { Platform } from 'react-tv'

console.log(Platform('webos')) // true
console.log(Platform('tizen')) // false
console.log(Platform('orsay')) // false

renderOnAppLoaded

Takes a component and returns a higher-order component version of that component, which renders only after application was launched, allows to not write diffent logics for many devices.

import { renderOnAppLoaded } from 'react-tv'

const Component = () =&gt; (<div></div>)
const App = renderOnAppLoaded(Component)

findDOMNode

Similar to react-dom findDOMNode

Navigation

If you want to start with Navigation for TVs. React-TV provides a package for spatial navigation with declarative support based on Netflix navigation system.

React-TV Navigation exports withFocusable and withNavigation which act as helpers for Navigation.

import React from 'react'
import ReactTV from 'react-tv'
import { withFocusable, withNavigation } from 'react-tv-navigation'

const Item = ({focused, setFocus, focusPath}) => {
  focused = (focused) ? 'focused' : 'unfocused'
  return (
    <div> { setFocus() }} &gt;
      It's {focused} Item
    </div>
  )
}

const Button = ({setFocus}) =&gt; {
  return (
    <div> { setFocus('item-1') }}&gt;
      Back To First Item!
    </div>
  )
}

const FocusableItem = withFocusable(Item)
const FocusableButton = withFocusable(Button)

function App({currentFocusPath}) {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Current FocusPath: '{currentFocusPath}'</h1>,
      
      
       console.log('Pressed enter on Button!')}/&gt;
    </div>
  )
}

const NavigableApp = withNavigation(App)

ReactTV.render(, document.querySelector('#app'))
