Native Stack Navigator: Native Performance, Less Customization

Native Stack Navigator uses the OS's built-in screen management for smooth, performant transitions. Use it for standard screen stacks where a native look and feel is key.
Native Stack Navigator uses the phone's own UI APIs (`UINavigationController` on iOS, `Fragment` on Android) for screen transitions, delivering smoother animations than JavaScript-based solutions. It's the go-to for standard stacks where a native feel is paramount, exposing features like large iOS titles. The footgun: this native integration limits you; you cannot implement highly custom animations or behaviors that the underlying platform doesn't support.
