UdemyReact Native - The Practical Guide

UdemyThe centerpiece project is a "Favorite Places" app, where users share photos alongside the location they were taken, which becomes the vehicle for learning maps integration, camera access, user authentication, and connecting to a backend server. Along the way you'll also cover responsive design across device sizes and in-app navigation.
Squarely aimed at developers who already know React and web development and want to redirect that knowledge into mobile, rather than starting a separate Java, Swift, or Objective-C learning track from scratch. If that's your position, this is a far shorter path to a working app on both app stores.
React Native isn't a niche choice; it's the framework behind mobile apps from companies like Instagram, AirBnB, and Skype, so the skills here map directly onto real production use cases rather than toy examples. Building one real, reasonably complex app end to end also teaches you more about the ecosystem's rough edges than a dozen disconnected tutorials would.
Mobile apps are one of the best ways to engage with users - no wonder everyone wants to build one!
But wouldn't it be amazing if you could use your web development knowledge, combined with your React knowledge, to build mobile apps with that?
That's exactly what React Native allows you to do!
No need to learn Java, Android, Swift, ObjectiveC or anything of that - React and JavaScript is all you need to create awesome native mobile apps that work on both Android and iOS. That's probably the reason why Instagram, AirBnB, Skype and many other global companies are using it to build their mobile apps!
With this course, you can join this league. I'll teach you all you need to create your own React Native apps, publish them to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store and dive really deep into the React Native ecosystem.
You'll learn all about the theory behind React Native, its core concepts, how to build responsive designs that work on different device sizes, how to navigate around, use maps and the camera and so much more!
And which better way to learn than by building a real app? We'll build the "Favorite Places" app in this course, an app where users can share amazing pictures and the location where they took them. This app will allow you to see things like using maps, the camera, user authentication, connecting to a server and much more in action.
By the end of the course, we'll of course also go through all steps required to get it into an app store.
Here's a detailed look at what you'll get:
The core concepts and theory
How to use React, JavaScript and native components
Understand how to navigate in React Native apps
A closer look at styling and animating React Native apps
Instructions on how to use third-party libraries in your React Native app
Detailed examples on how to use maps or an image picker
A full user authentication flow
How to connect to a backend server from your app
Debugging instructions
And so much more!
What will you need to succeed in this course?
NO Android, Java, Swift or ObjectiveC knowledge is required!
JavaScript and React (for the web) knowledge is required though - you don't need to be an expert but the basics need to be set (though there are refresher sections in this course!)
I'd be very happy to welcome you in the course!
