React Native CLI

Leverage your React skills for mobile. Master the React Native CLI, bridge native modules, and manage complex navigation flows.

React Native allows web developers to become mobile developers. This course focuses on the CLI workflow (not Expo) for maximum control. You will learn to build performant mobile apps using JavaScript/TypeScript, managing navigation with React Navigation. We dive into bridging native modules to access platform-specific APIs that JavaScript can't reach alone. Learn optimization techniques to ensure your JS thread doesn't block the UI, delivering 60fps experiences.
