Build high-performance, native iOS and Android apps using a single JavaScript/React codebase. Complete guide from scratch to App Store deployment.
React Native is the revolutionary mobile framework created by Meta that allows software developers to engineer high-fidelity, native mobile applications for iOS and Android platforms simultaneously. Instead of writing separate codebases in Objective-C/Swift for Apple and Java/Kotlin for Google, React Native unlocks cross-platform development using clean, modern JavaScript.
This program is structured to guide students from absolute mobile app layout foundations to complex system design. You will build highly responsive interfaces using **Flexbox styling layouts**, handle routing using **React Navigation**, optimize backend API data fetching, interact with native APIs (Camera, Photo roll, and Location tracking), and master App Store submission routines.
**JavaScript Basics**: A solid understanding of modern JavaScript (ES6+ features like Arrow Functions, Promises, Async/Await, and Destructuring).
**React Core Concepts**: Understanding React concepts like Components, Props, State, and standard React hooks (useState, useEffect) will help speed up your progress, though we review them.
**Computer Setup**: A laptop (Mac or Windows) with internet access. Note: A Mac is required to test and compile applications for iOS simulators/App Store.
