Polaris web components
Polaris web components are the UI building blocks that you use to display data and trigger API functions. These components are native UI elements that follow Shopify's design system and render optimized interfaces for retail workflows in the POS app on iOS and Android devices.
Your target determines which components you can use because different locations in POS have different interface requirements and constraints.
