Course Description
React Native is a powerful way to build mobile apps using javascript. Based on the React library (an open source javascript user interface library for web applications, developed by Facebook), React Native allows developers to quickly prototype working solutions for Android and iOS devices.
This course teaches the fundamentals of building user interfaces with React Native. The focus of the course is on the View portion of a full Model - View - Controller architecture; the Model and Controller portions are usually provided by such technologies as php / MySQL. In the course, we will learn to develop working user interface solutions. Topics include:
- How to install React Native
- Initializing and running a new project
- Editing program code
- Properties
- States
- Handling text input
- Using CSS with React Native
- Using Flexbox layout
- List Views
- Navigators
I hope you will join me for this exciting first look at React Native.

This is very outdated, working on getting React Native added and to be able to go through the course. The initial steps provided are inaccurate for anyone looking to take this course.

The course is too old. I didn't know I should have chosen a newer course

It is a very basic course, excellent if you are coming from scratch to react-native

First video has over one minute of silence at the end of it. They were talking and then it just cuts to silence mid sentence!

Well i had some experience in working with React native and had taken this course to ensure that i'm sure that i know all the basics. In the end i'm impressed with a little bit clarification about the Flexbox layouts confusion. i'm benefited at last !!

It seems like the content is fine overall, but there doesn't seem to be support from the instructor--I'm having the same problems as many of the posted questions, but the instructor hasn't answered them. Also, the video cuts off in the first lecture, which I'm guessing is where he explains how to install react-native, and from the questions, it looks like this has been a problem for quite some time. I'll probably just do a different react-native course that is better supported.

A good introduction to using react native
By Faisal Qamar on 9/28/2016
I give 3.5 star not because of Instructor. Great Instructor but wasted by EDUMobile Academy. content has missing the important basic topics, such as setup platform. I heard from instructor a couple of time code once and run on multiple platform but didn't show. More or less you need "xcode" which run on mac os only and Thanks to Android to which run on multiple platform. star rating will improve if EDUMobile Academy request to instructor to complete the content.
