What is React Native App & Why It's Important
What is a React Native App?
A React Native app is a cross-platform mobile application built using Facebook's React Native framework. React Native allows developers to write mobile applications in JavaScript and React, which are then compiled to native code for both iOS and Android platforms. This means you get truly native mobile apps from a single codebase.
React Native apps are not web apps wrapped in a mobile container – they are real native applications that use the same fundamental UI building blocks as regular iOS and Android apps. They offer near-native performance, access to device features, and can be published to both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, all while significantly reducing development time and cost.
Why React Native Apps are Important
Build for both iOS and Android with a single codebase, reducing development time by up to 50% compared to building separate native apps. This means faster time-to-market and lower development costs.
React Native apps render using native components, not webviews. This provides smooth 60 FPS animations, fast loading times, and access to all device features like camera, GPS, and push notifications.
React Native's hot reload feature allows developers to see changes instantly without rebuilding the app, enabling rapid development and quick bug fixes. Updates can be pushed instantly without app store approval.
