# React Router The `react-router` package is the heart of [React Router](https://github.com/remix-run/react-router) and provides all the core functionality for both [`react-router-dom`](/packages/react-router-dom) and [`react-router-native`](/packages/react-router-native). If you're using React Router, you should never `import` anything directly from the `react-router` package, but you should have everything you need in either `react-router-dom` or `react-router-native`. Both of those packages re-export everything from `react-router`. If you'd like to extend React Router and you know what you're doing, you should add `react-router` **as a peer dependency, not a regular dependency** in your package.
