Summary

Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.

Implemented:

  • Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods: applyViewTransitionName, startViewTransition
  • Implemented startViewTransition with proper callback orchestration (mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
  • Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's startViewTransition returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
  • Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
  • Stubbed with __DEV__ warnings for all the other view transition config functions that are not yet implemented

This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.

Below are diagrams of proposed architecture in fabric, and observation of what/when config functions get called during a basic shared transition example

Untitled-2026-03-19-1240

How did you test this change?

  • yarn flow fabric - Flow type checks pass
  • yarn lint - Lint checks pass
  • Manually tested in Android catalyst app with enableViewTransition and enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode in ReactFeatureFlags.test-renderer.native-fb.js and View Transition enabled via ReactNativeFeatureFlag
  • Verified in the minified ReactFabric-dev.fb.js that the 'shim' config functions are not included
  • Verified fallback behavior logs warning in __DEV__ and flushes work synchronously when ViewTransition flag isn't enabled in Fabric

Pull Request resolved: #55742
Changelog:
[General] [Added] - Add UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate interface and View Transition APIs
Adds `UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate` interface and View Transition APIs to UIManager, enabling integration with React reconciler's `<ViewTransition/>` component.
Exposes JSI bindings in UIManagerBinding, which will be consumed by react fabric renderer (react/react#35764)
- `measureInstance` - returns layout metrics and calls `captureLayoutMetricsFromRoot` to capture snapshot
- `applyViewTransitionName` / `cancelViewTransitionName` / `restoreViewTransitionName` - manage transition name registration
- `startViewTransition` - orchestrates transition lifecycle with mutation/ready/complete callbacks
The delegate methods are gated by the `viewTransitionEnabled` feature flag.

Wherever the reconciler checks supportsMutation before running view
transition logic, add an else-if branch gated on
enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode for persistent renderers (Fabric).
This follows the pattern that supportsMutation guards mutation-mode-only
logic, and persistent mode should have its own branch rather than being
lumped under a single supportsViewTransition capability flag.
For now the persistent mode branches duplicate the mutation logic.
The flag defaults to false in all channels.
Remove viewport measurement and cancelable children tracking for
persistence mode paths, deferring viewport calculation to a future TODO.
Remove duplicate restoreRootViewTransitionName call and deduplicate
feature flag import.
Summary:
- turn on enableViewTransition feature
- stub shim
- run some mutation config fn at persistence mode too
Better reflects that this signals the transition has started rather than
initiating it.

The noop renderer's mutationHostConfig includes view transition methods,
but these keys weren't part of the Pick type, causing a Flow error.
Instead of adding them to ReactFiberConfigWithNoMutation (which would
conflict with Fabric's separate ReactFiberConfigFabricWithViewTransition
re-exports), create a new ReactFiberConfigWithNoViewTransition shim file
and union its keys into the noop renderer's mutationHostConfig type.

## Summary
Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.
**Implemented:**
- Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods:
`applyViewTransitionName`, `startViewTransition`
- Implemented `startViewTransition` with proper callback orchestration
(mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
- Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's
`startViewTransition` returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition
ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
- Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
- Stubbed with `__DEV__` warnings for all the other view transition
config functions that are not yet implemented
This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View
Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with
graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: #55742
Changelog:
[General] [Added] - Add UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate interface and View Transition APIs
Adds `UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate` interface and View Transition APIs to UIManager, enabling integration with React reconciler's `<ViewTransition/>` component.
Exposes JSI bindings in UIManagerBinding, which will be consumed by react fabric renderer (react/react#35764)
- `measureInstance` - returns layout metrics and calls `captureLayoutMetricsFromRoot` to capture snapshot
- `applyViewTransitionName` / `cancelViewTransitionName` / `restoreViewTransitionName` - manage transition name registration
- `startViewTransition` - orchestrates transition lifecycle with mutation/ready/complete callbacks
The delegate methods are gated by the `viewTransitionEnabled` feature flag.

Wherever the reconciler checks supportsMutation before running view
transition logic, add an else-if branch gated on
enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode for persistent renderers (Fabric).
This follows the pattern that supportsMutation guards mutation-mode-only
logic, and persistent mode should have its own branch rather than being
lumped under a single supportsViewTransition capability flag.
For now the persistent mode branches duplicate the mutation logic.
The flag defaults to false in all channels.
Remove viewport measurement and cancelable children tracking for
persistence mode paths, deferring viewport calculation to a future TODO.
Remove duplicate restoreRootViewTransitionName call and deduplicate
feature flag import.
Summary:
- turn on enableViewTransition feature
- stub shim
- run some mutation config fn at persistence mode too
Better reflects that this signals the transition has started rather than
initiating it.

You can call into wasInstanceInViewport from config and put the TODO there for implementation?

The noop renderer's mutationHostConfig includes view transition methods,
but these keys weren't part of the Pick type, causing a Flow error.
Instead of adding them to ReactFiberConfigWithNoMutation (which would
conflict with Fabric's separate ReactFiberConfigFabricWithViewTransition
re-exports), create a new ReactFiberConfigWithNoViewTransition shim file
and union its keys into the noop renderer's mutationHostConfig type.

Changelog:
[General] [Added] - Add UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate interface and View Transition APIs
Adds `UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate` interface and View Transition APIs to UIManager, enabling integration with React reconciler's `<ViewTransition/>` component.
Exposes JSI bindings in UIManagerBinding, which will be consumed by react fabric renderer (react/react#35764)
- `measureInstance` - returns layout metrics and calls `captureLayoutMetricsFromRoot` to capture snapshot
- `applyViewTransitionName` / `cancelViewTransitionName` / `restoreViewTransitionName` - manage transition name registration
- `startViewTransition` - orchestrates transition lifecycle with mutation/ready/complete callbacks
The delegate methods are gated by the `viewTransitionEnabled` feature flag.

Wherever the reconciler checks supportsMutation before running view
transition logic, add an else-if branch gated on
enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode for persistent renderers (Fabric).
This follows the pattern that supportsMutation guards mutation-mode-only
logic, and persistent mode should have its own branch rather than being
lumped under a single supportsViewTransition capability flag.
For now the persistent mode branches duplicate the mutation logic.
The flag defaults to false in all channels.
Remove viewport measurement and cancelable children tracking for
persistence mode paths, deferring viewport calculation to a future TODO.
Remove duplicate restoreRootViewTransitionName call and deduplicate
feature flag import.
Summary:
- turn on enableViewTransition feature
- stub shim
- run some mutation config fn at persistence mode too
Better reflects that this signals the transition has started rather than
initiating it.

The noop renderer's mutationHostConfig includes view transition methods,
but these keys weren't part of the Pick type, causing a Flow error.
Instead of adding them to ReactFiberConfigWithNoMutation (which would
conflict with Fabric's separate ReactFiberConfigFabricWithViewTransition
re-exports), create a new ReactFiberConfigWithNoViewTransition shim file
and union its keys into the noop renderer's mutationHostConfig type.

## Summary
Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.
**Implemented:**
- Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods:
`applyViewTransitionName`, `startViewTransition`
- Implemented `startViewTransition` with proper callback orchestration
(mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
- Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's
`startViewTransition` returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition
ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
- Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
- Stubbed with `__DEV__` warnings for all the other view transition
config functions that are not yet implemented
This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View
Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with
graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.
Below are diagrams of proposed architecture in fabric, and observation
of what/when config functions get called during a basic shared
transition example

## Summary
Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.
**Implemented:**
- Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods:
`applyViewTransitionName`, `startViewTransition`
- Implemented `startViewTransition` with proper callback orchestration
(mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
- Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's
`startViewTransition` returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition
ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
- Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
- Stubbed with `__DEV__` warnings for all the other view transition
config functions that are not yet implemented
This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View
Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with
graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.
Below are diagrams of proposed architecture in fabric, and observation
of what/when config functions get called during a basic shared
transition example

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: #55742
Changelog:
[General] [Added] - Add UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate interface and View Transition APIs
Adds `UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate` interface and View Transition APIs to UIManager, enabling integration with React reconciler's `<ViewTransition/>` component.
Exposes JSI bindings in UIManagerBinding, which will be consumed by react fabric renderer (react/react#35764)
- `measureInstance` - returns layout metrics and calls `captureLayoutMetricsFromRoot` to capture snapshot
- `applyViewTransitionName` / `cancelViewTransitionName` / `restoreViewTransitionName` - manage transition name registration
- `startViewTransition` - orchestrates transition lifecycle with mutation/ready/complete callbacks
The delegate methods are gated by the `viewTransitionEnabled` feature flag.

Wherever the reconciler checks supportsMutation before running view
transition logic, add an else-if branch gated on
enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode for persistent renderers (Fabric).
This follows the pattern that supportsMutation guards mutation-mode-only
logic, and persistent mode should have its own branch rather than being
lumped under a single supportsViewTransition capability flag.
For now the persistent mode branches duplicate the mutation logic.
The flag defaults to false in all channels.
Remove viewport measurement and cancelable children tracking for
persistence mode paths, deferring viewport calculation to a future TODO.
Remove duplicate restoreRootViewTransitionName call and deduplicate
feature flag import.
Summary:
- turn on enableViewTransition feature
- stub shim
- run some mutation config fn at persistence mode too
Better reflects that this signals the transition has started rather than
initiating it.

You can call into wasInstanceInViewport from config and put the TODO there for implementation?

The noop renderer's mutationHostConfig includes view transition methods,
but these keys weren't part of the Pick type, causing a Flow error.
Instead of adding them to ReactFiberConfigWithNoMutation (which would
conflict with Fabric's separate ReactFiberConfigFabricWithViewTransition
re-exports), create a new ReactFiberConfigWithNoViewTransition shim file
and union its keys into the noop renderer's mutationHostConfig type.

Changelog:
[General] [Added] - Add UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate interface and View Transition APIs
Adds `UIManagerViewTransitionDelegate` interface and View Transition APIs to UIManager, enabling integration with React reconciler's `<ViewTransition/>` component.
Exposes JSI bindings in UIManagerBinding, which will be consumed by react fabric renderer (react/react#35764)
- `measureInstance` - returns layout metrics and calls `captureLayoutMetricsFromRoot` to capture snapshot
- `applyViewTransitionName` / `cancelViewTransitionName` / `restoreViewTransitionName` - manage transition name registration
- `startViewTransition` - orchestrates transition lifecycle with mutation/ready/complete callbacks
The delegate methods are gated by the `viewTransitionEnabled` feature flag.

Wherever the reconciler checks supportsMutation before running view
transition logic, add an else-if branch gated on
enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode for persistent renderers (Fabric).
This follows the pattern that supportsMutation guards mutation-mode-only
logic, and persistent mode should have its own branch rather than being
lumped under a single supportsViewTransition capability flag.
For now the persistent mode branches duplicate the mutation logic.
The flag defaults to false in all channels.
Remove viewport measurement and cancelable children tracking for
persistence mode paths, deferring viewport calculation to a future TODO.
Remove duplicate restoreRootViewTransitionName call and deduplicate
feature flag import.
Summary:
- turn on enableViewTransition feature
- stub shim
- run some mutation config fn at persistence mode too
Better reflects that this signals the transition has started rather than
initiating it.

The noop renderer's mutationHostConfig includes view transition methods,
but these keys weren't part of the Pick type, causing a Flow error.
Instead of adding them to ReactFiberConfigWithNoMutation (which would
conflict with Fabric's separate ReactFiberConfigFabricWithViewTransition
re-exports), create a new ReactFiberConfigWithNoViewTransition shim file
and union its keys into the noop renderer's mutationHostConfig type.

## Summary
Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.
**Implemented:**
- Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods:
`applyViewTransitionName`, `startViewTransition`
- Implemented `startViewTransition` with proper callback orchestration
(mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
- Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's
`startViewTransition` returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition
ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
- Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
- Stubbed with `__DEV__` warnings for all the other view transition
config functions that are not yet implemented
This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View
Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with
graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.
Below are diagrams of proposed architecture in fabric, and observation
of what/when config functions get called during a basic shared
transition example

of what/when config functions get called during a basic shared
transition example

## How did you test this change?
- [x] `yarn flow fabric` - Flow type checks pass
- [x] `yarn lint` - Lint checks pass
- [x] Manually tested in Android catalyst app with
`enableViewTransition` and `enableViewTransitionForPersistenceMode `in
`ReactFeatureFlags.test-renderer.native-fb.js` and View Transition
enabled via ReactNativeFeatureFlag
- [x] Verified in the minified `ReactFabric-dev.fb.js` that the 'shim'
config functions are not included
- [x] Verified fallback behavior logs warning in `__DEV__` and flushes
work synchronously when ViewTransition flag isn't enabled in Fabric

## Summary
Enables Basic View Transition support for React Native Fabric renderer.
**Implemented:**
- Added FabricUIManager bindings for view transition methods:
`applyViewTransitionName`, `startViewTransition`
- Implemented `startViewTransition` with proper callback orchestration
(mutation → layout → afterMutation → spawnedWork → passive)
- Added fallback behavior that flushes work synchronously when Fabric's
`startViewTransition` returns null (e.g., when the ViewTransition
ReactNativeFeatureFlag is not enabled)
- Added Flow type declarations for new FabricUIManager methods
- Stubbed with `__DEV__` warnings for all the other view transition
config functions that are not yet implemented
This allows React Native apps using Fabric to leverage the View
Transition API for coordinated animations during state transitions, with
graceful degradation when the native side doesn't support it.
