# Stytch React Native SDK (Beta) Overview

> Get started with the Stytch React Native SDK for building secure authentication flows

<Note>These docs are for our new Kotlin Multiplatform SDK, which is in **Public beta**. If you are instead looking for the stable version, please see [here](/docs/api-reference/consumer/mobile-sdks/react-native-legacy/overview).</Note>

The Stytch SDKs provide methods that communicate directly with the Stytch API, allowing you to easily authenticate your users without adding extra endpoints to your backend.

The Stytch React Native Consumer SDK is a headless Kotlin Multiplatform library distributed as an NPM package. It provides platform native async/await API for all Stytch Consumer authentication methods.
