Learn React Native

The up-to-date, in-depth, complete guide to React Native.
Create beautiful mobile apps with JavaScript and React

Expand your skillset to mobile development

  • Deliver high quality mobile apps, at light speed.

    Building the same app in both Swift and Java is time-consuming. With React Native, you can release a native app on both iOS and Android from a single codebase.

  • Do you or your team already know JavaScript?

    Leverage your existing knowledge to build world class mobile applications.

  • The React Native ecosystem is evolving fast. Get started on the right foot.

    With such an active community and so many updates, it feels impossible to know what's best and what's just noise. We cover the latest React Native version and best practices so you can develop with confidence.

What customers have said about our React books

Olga Isakova

“Thank you for the great Fullstack React book. It's very straight-forward and well-structured. I'm learning a lot!”

Alec Lorraine
Alec Lorraine Software Engineer

“As our company's lead engineer at Brighten.in, I was recently tasked with switching our entire mobile stack over to React Native. The Fullstack React Native book has been invaluable in this transition! I've been consulting it daily because it's difficult to find the same detailed and well rounded instruction that the book provides. I'd recommend the book both as a beginner's guide and as a go-to for anyone working with React Native.”

Emeline Esteves Front-end Developer

“I'm a noob in React and your book/tutorial is excellent. I like the way you start with the smaller react project and I suppose we finish with a more complete app with more features like redux. Thank for your book!”

Shiva Kilaru Engineer

“It’s tough to learn React without a single cohesive resource; this book saved me a lot of time that would have otherwise been spent bouncing between StackOverflow threads. I also have the cover framed and displayed prominently in my apartment.”

I'm wondering...

How long is the book?

The book has 11 chapters totaling 515 pages, several sample apps totaling over 1000+ lines of code (JavaScript/JSX, non-comment lines).

Is the book complete?

YES! The book and video is complete.

Do I have to know JavaScript?

Yes, we assume you know the basics of the language. But you don't need to be completely up-to-date: we teach the latest language features in case you're not familiar with them.

However, this book teaches React Native from the ground up and you can use it even if you've never written a mobile app before.

How long is the video screencast?

The screencast is about an hour and a half.

Are there free updates?

Yes!

Buying now entitles you to free updates for at least one year after purchase.

Nope! We've written the book so that it can be used even if you aren't familiar with React. Although, if you'd like to learn React in depth, checkout our other book Fullstack React

Can I read a sample for free?

Absolutely. You can download the first chapter here and get your first React Native app running in minutes.
