ReactNative with WordPress as back-end

Hello

I have a news website ( WordPress) and I want my ReactNative app to read the posts from the website and show them in the app. For that, I will use WordPress REST APIs but I have some questions if someone can help:

  • Is it a good idea to view the article as HTML ( using WebView), any pros/cons
  • How can I control the aspect ratio of the images?

Thanks
