Developed by Facebook, React Native is one of the leading frameworks to build native mobile apps for Android and iOS. You use small manageable components to build mobile applications that look and feel truly 'native'.

In this book, we take you on a fun, hands-on and pragmatic journey to master React Native. You'll start building React Native apps using functional components within minutes. Every section is written in a bite-sized manner and straight to the point as I don't want to waste your time (and most certainly mine) on the content you don't need. In the end, you will have what it takes to develop a real-life app.

Requirements

Basic familiarity with HTML, Javascript and object-oriented programming. No prior knowledge of React Native is required as we start from React basics. But if you have previous experience with React, you will progress through the material faster.
