RC notes

Use ScrollView or other React Native scrolling components for scrolling. Whole view overflow-hidden and overflow-visible are distinct from CSS scroll containers.

Compatibility

Support applies to the documented values and platforms. See the RC compatibility notes for value limits and native migration alternatives. Browser behavior is evaluated separately.
