+Here are some reasons to choose React Native for Desktop:
 
 - You want to share code across platforms as much as possible, or you have web properties that you want to share code with.
 - Improved developer productivity and inner loop, thanks to fast refresh.
 - Your app's fundamentals (performance, accessibility, internationalization) are as good as a native UWP app.
 - You have experience with and a preference for JavaScript or TypeScript
 - You would like to leverage JavaScript-only libraries on [npmjs.com](https://www.npmjs.com/), and many native libraries too.
-- Your app will use the native controls, visual appearance, animations and colors, and therefore will feel integrated into the design language used in Windows. In addition, React Native for Windows apps do not have to compromise on the set of APIs they can call, as the framework allows you to call platform APIs as well as write your own view managers and native modules.
