Adaptive React Native UIs for Tablets and Foldables

Adaptive UI is context-aware layout, not just stretching pixels. A responsive flexbox container might reflow on a foldable, but adaptive components know the device class, orientation, and screen real estate to rearrange themselves. It matters when your phone-first app lands on a 10-inch tablet or a foldable unfolds into tablet mode. The footgun is stopping at flexbox and dynamic font sizes while leaving navigation, modals, and data density untouched, which leaves tablet users with a blown-up phone interface that wastes half the screen.
