Lightning Web Components and Aura Components Working Together

An interoperability layer enables Lightning web components and Aura components to work together in an app.

You can write new Lightning web components and add them to apps that contain Aura components. Or, you can iteratively migrate on your schedule by replacing individual Aura components in your app with Lightning web components.

Lightning web components and Aura components can work together, but there are limitations that you must understand.

Aura components can contain Lightning web components. However, the opposite doesn’t apply. Lightning web components can’t contain Aura components.
