React Native shortening the distance between development and cross-platform mobile design
Keywords:
React Native, Javascript, framework, Android, multiplatformAbstract
Internet, smartphones, mobile applications and the new way of communicating have changed the way we live worldwide. It is estimated that nine out of ten people have a mobile phone capable of supporting applications connected to the Internet. This has generated a high demand for the development of mobile applications and, therefore, companies such as Facebook are taking advantage by creating libraries that allow all developers to create mobile applications quickly and easily. With the creation of the library of React Native, Facebook has begun to generate more interest among people to use its technology.
React Native allows you to create mobile applications using only JavaScript. For web developers, this is very helpful because they do not need to learn a completely different programming language to venture into mobile application development. With React Native, neither a mobile web application, an HTML5 application nor a hybrid application is created; instead, a native mobile application is created that is not easily distinguished from a native one made with Java for Android or with Objective C for iOS.
Currently, React Native is used for the development of different mobile applications for daily use, such as social networks, which include Facebook, Instagram and Uber Eats among others. Keywords: React Native, Javascript, framework, Android, multiplatform.
