Crazy timing on this video! I've built a flutter app but my project structure now has grown to be so messy I can't implement new features, and since I'm starting to learn nextJS I thought about learning RN at the same time.
Thanks for doing this video. React Native always really interested me since I had that basic skillset, so it felt like all of a sudden there was a lot of stuff I'd be able to do without having to learn too much more than what I already know.
Thank you for releasing this video. The perfect content that I have been waiting for! React Native Mobile development looks to be within any developers grasp now!
Hi @EngineerMan great video as always. In your personal opinion, are there any reasons not to use react native? Also, in your line of work or in your developer experience have you ever encountered a project where react native was not an option?
Only once and it was a physical device plugged into the phone's USB and the app needed to interact with it. This necessarily involved custom native modules which at the time wasn't supported by Expo. In that project, I had to eject and write the module myself. I really can't think of a good reason to author separate apps at this point. I'm sure if you're a big company with infinite budget, it's probably easier to just hire separate developers to write native apps. But for most businesses without a big budget, or a new company developing mobile apps and need to get them to market yesterday, there's no reason whatsoever to not use React Native (or equivalent).
Do you have content on creating React without “create” scripts? I want to know what dependencies I’m using and know some of what is under the hood of those dependencies. I’m looking to make sure if I use React for work I’m not downloading a bunch of junk JS files that would make my work machine vulnerable
Sorry for the peaking audio, the cat rolled around on the Focusrite.

I love your videos man, you got me into coding with your video where you interview python to rack up charges on scammers

I already have lots of experience with react native but damn this is so entertaining
Brilliant! Thanks for these types of videos covering tech clearly and concisely. Gonna def try Expo and EAS out!
You do an excellent job in all of these types of videos. Well done
Thank you for the kind words.
After learning Flutter for the last 3 months, this looks pretty intuitive.
Funny as a React Native dev I think the same thing about Flutter
@jthoward I struggled a bit with Flutter at first coming from a web dev background writing JS, PHP
very helpful thank you Engineer man!
Thank you! It was useful!
Thanks for the amazing video. How about the pricing on expo? how does this actually work I've been confused with this.
really cool you dont need a mac with react native, with flutter you need one
The hat is back!! 🎉 Great video!
Am now a react native dev thank eman
Great video sir

Im pretty sure React Native doesn't have access to certain Android api's like Material You theming, but i could be wrong

they arent listening on a port, and unless you're running them as root, you're not gonna make your machine vulnerable.
So you need a Mac to publish the file generated by Expo?
I happen to have a very old Mac Mini that I use only for this purpose. However, I think EAS supports the upload step as well.
you can upload using eas submit too...no need for mac
Are you using VSCode now? Have you heard of the Pulsar editor?
I personally use VSCodium

Bro has broadcast quality microphone, yet audio sounds distorted and clipping
Yeah that's my fault. See pinned comment.
