Description



If you are a developer looking to create mobile applications with maximized code reusability and minimized cost, React Native is what you need. With this practical guide, you’ll be able to build attractive UIs, tackle common problems in mobile development, and achieve improved performance in mobile environments.



This book starts by covering the common techniques for React Native customization and helps you set up your development platforms. Over the course of the book, you’ll work through a wide variety of recipes that help you create, style, and animate your apps with built-in React Native and custom third-party components. You’ll also develop real-world browser-based authentication, build a fully functional audio player, and integrate Google Maps in your apps. This book will help you explore different strategies for working with data, including leveraging the popular Redux library and optimizing your app’s dataflow. You’ll also learn how to write native device functionality for new and existing React Native projects and how app deployment works.



By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with tips and tricks to write efficient code and have the skills to build full iOS and Android applications using React Native.

Who this book is for



   If you’re a JavaScript developer looking for a practical guide for developing feature-rich mobile apps using React Native, this book is for you. Though not necessary, some experience of working with React will help you understand the React Native concepts covered in this book easily.
