Can Ory Network use native apps like the Facebook app to sign-in instead of OIDC in a WebView for my react-native app?

Hi @melodic-autumn-17939 No, we only support using a webview. https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/social-signin/native-apps Would you mind opening an issue to track such a feature? https://github.com/ory/network/issues/new/choose

Thanks @proud-plumber-24205 what part provides the OIDC. I’m guessing that would be Hydra then configured with Kratos as consent service?

It depends on the use case. If you want your users to sign in to an already existing provider (e.g. Facebook), then it's only Kratos (Identity service). If you want to become an OAuth provider, then you use Hydra with Kratos. In Ory network projects you already have both in the same project and it is already configured to work together. So doing a login flow with an OAuth client will already show you the Login page (the Account Experience) bundled with the project and create the identity inside the project Identity service (Kratos).

So with Kratos alone the social login via WebView for native apps is supported? https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/social-signin/native-apps

Not per se, but we want our users to be able to login with our react-native app using Facebook and other providers.
