Creating Apps with React Native - by M Holmes He (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Produce high-quality, cross-platform apps with user experiences almost identical to pure native apps. When evaluating cross-platform frameworks, developers make an assumption that quality will be compromised. But that doesn't have to be true. The principles in this book will show you how to meet quality expectations both from engineering and consumer standpoints.

You'll also realize the ideal of a greater front end. That means your whole front-end team, including app side and web side, will be optimized. The shared knowledge base as well as mobilization potential give more flexibility and strength in all front-end facets without the need of increasing team sizes.

The market has seen a large amount of high quality React Native apps and successful stories about them. Nevertheless, under optimized apps and unsuccessful stories shadow. The fundamental difference between the two opposing groups is understanding. Discover the critical points in the React and React Native architecture, and develop general best practices that can lead to consistently developing 0 crash, 5 star apps based on an understanding of fundamentals.
What You'll Learn

• Measure and define successful app design
  
• Create animation based on user need
  
• Reduce performance bottleneck throughout your apps

Who This Book Is For
Mobile developers who want to expand their front end skill set, and web developers who want to enter mobile development.
