(offbeat uplifting music) - Hello, I'm Alex Banks. Welcome to Learning React Native. In this class, we're going to build native applications that run on iOS and Android devices with React. React Native is a popular framework for building native applications. You built these applications using JavaScript. That's right, JavaScript. And these applications are fast, render smoothly, and truly feel like native applications. Now you might have heard that hybrid JavaScript is not the best approach for building native applications. And in the past, this was true. But React Native is different. React Native uses the multi-threaded native components and APIs that ship with your device. Look, I want to make sure that you leave this class ready to build your own applications. And the best way to do that is to build something. So in this class, we're going to build a small application called the Color Organizer. You can get it here, just scan this QR code. Open the link, and then you'll be directed to the app in the App Store or the Play Store. In this course, we're going to get you working with React Native and Expo. First, we're going to make sure your development process is dialed, then we're going to move on to the important stuff, like how to collect data from the user, how to add data points to a list. How to incorporate navigation that allows your users to navigate from screen to screen. We're even going to build a bonus app that allows you to fetch and render data from the internet. I'm pretty excited to introduce you to React Native. Hope you're ready to have some fun, let's get started.
