Why is React Native development taking over?
After Facebook revealed React to the world in 2013, this JavaScript library has quickly become one of the most popular choices for building fast, beautiful and extremely scalable user interfaces. Then, Facebook wanted to bring its solutions and component-based architecture to the mobile world. This wish gave birth to React Native for mobile.
React Native development is a unique way of building mobile apps. It uses JavaScript and various elements known from the original React library. However, the resulting code is compiled to technologies native to the two most popular mobile platforms: Android and iOS. As a result, you can build cross-platform native mobile apps using JavaScript.
Game-changing speed
Cross-platform solution almost as fast as native mobile frameworks
Android & iOS apps in one go
Possibility to reuse most of the application’s code for two most popular mobile systems
Supreme UX
Making beautiful and responsive user interfaces, unlike many hybrid app development solutions
Strong community
Backed by thousands devs and enthusiasts who simply love React and React Native
Flexible architecture
React-like modular architecture that can be used in a variety of ways
Based on JavaScript
Ability to create full-fledged native mobile apps using the language of the web development
While the React Native framework is powerful, providing performance on par with native mobile frameworks, the power it brings doesn’t come without its own demands. In order to build great React Native based mobile apps, you need React Native developers skilled in both React-based development and mobile technologies. React Native development retains a lot of what makes React unique, but it also requires to think in a way a skilled mobile developer would, taking into consideration the behaviour of mobile users, the typical ways mobile apps are used compared to web apps, a different approach to user interfaces, databases, software architecture and more.
One of the biggest mistakes is thinking about React Native as an excuse to forget about what makes mobile development unique and focus entirely on React Native. Without experience in mobile, you won’t make a great product and you won’t solve various challenges that may arise during developing complex React Native apps. It's vital to use React Native components in an efficient, and yet creative way to achieve a native feel for both Android and iOS. You also need to consider scalability when it comes to large mobile projects. To put it simply, you need developers specialized in React Native in particular, not just React developers.
However, when you have React Native developers as good as those at The Software House, you can focus on extremely efficient mobile development. Just like other top brands that use React Native mobile apps, including Instagram, Walmart or Bloomberg. Harness the power of React Native to make the kind of mobile products everyone loves. Take full advantage of React Native's promise to create both Android and iOS native apps in one development cycle, saving up resources for maintenance and development, without compromising the unique feel of neither Android or iOS development. It will only be possible with a top-notch React Native development company.
Where and when should you use React Native?
Mobile applications for Android
React Native development services can be used to develop Android applications that feel and perform in every way as well as mobile apps written in Android’s native language (Java). What’s more, developers can use both JavaScript and Java simultaneously. By communicating with the native SDK and working in the background to bring UI elements to the user, it doesn’t run into many performance problems typical for frameworks that take advantage of WebView.
Mobile application for iOS
The same goes for iOS mobile applications. React Native communicates with Apple’s system native platform to serve ready-made elements of the user interface. It can be used alongside programming languages typically used for iOS development (Objective-C and Swift). Best, a lot of the code written during React Native app development can be used to build both the Android and iOS applications. Code reusability often results in shorter development time and better performance. You can even build a single app and release it on both Android and iOS.
Highly-interactive user interfaces
Just like React, React Native makes it easy to develop interfaces that update in real-time, making for great user experience in your mobile apps. React Native app development provides programmers with tools to create beautiful, fast, and highly interactive mobile app user interfaces that feel in every way native. This is why both React and React Native development services are favored by startups and companies that market to individual users.
Cross-platform mobile apps
Not only can you share a lot of React Native code between your various mobile applications, but you can also reuse some code and components from your React web application. This further improves the productivity of your team. Using the same programming language across your software may also help improve the cooperation between your team members. Today, JavaScript can be used as the foundation of nearly every element of your stack, including backend web development language.
High-performing applications
React Native not only allows you to develop apps efficiently but also doesn’t force you to compromise on performance. It provides a faster and much more reliable performance than hybrid applications or progressive web applications (PWAs). As the React Native environment becomes more and more mature, it finds ways to solve issues that may appear as the app becomes more complex. Its open-source nature makes it easy to find an answer to just about any performance challenge.
When long-term scalability is essential
When your application gets really big, aspects such as state management and performance can become an issue. Productivity may suffer as the level of complexity of the system increases. But React Native is mature enough to have tools and solutions to all the typical scalability issues, including the popular state management library Redux/MobX. It makes it suitable for both MVPs and large ambitious projects. That’s why a development company that specializes in React Native development may be just what you need.
