+## React 19 API Changes
+
+> **⚠️ React 19+ only.** Skip this if you're on React 18 or earlier.
+
+In React 19, `ref` is now a regular prop (no `forwardRef` wrapper needed), and `use()` replaces `useContext()`.
+
+**Incorrect (forwardRef in React 19):**
+
+```tsx
+const ComposerInput = forwardRef<TextInput, Props>((props, ref) => {
+  return <TextInput ref={ref} {...props} />;
+});
+```
+
+**Correct (ref as a regular prop):**
+
+```tsx
+function ComposerInput({ ref, ...props }: Props & { ref?: React.Ref<TextInput> }) {
+  return <TextInput ref={ref} {...props} />;
+}
+```
+
+**Incorrect (useContext in React 19):**
+
+```tsx
+const value = useContext(MyContext);
+```
+
+**Correct (use instead of useContext):**
+
+```tsx
+const value = use(MyContext);
+```
+
+`use()` can also be called conditionally, unlike `useContext()`.
