It is not wrong to say that mobile phones are the half soul of every individual and when it comes to Android development or iOS development, businesses often get confused whether they should offer their consumers, a mobile app with superlative User Interface (UI) and outstanding User Experience (UX) or apps that are compatible with multiple platforms and are faster to develop in the first place. And hence, there comes the REACT Native Development in the picture!

REACT Native helps you create real and exciting mobile apps with the help of JavaScript only, which is supportable for both android and iOS platforms. Just code once, and the REACT Native apps are available for both iOS and Android platforms which helps to save development time. Found a great popularity and also backed by Facebook, REACT Native, has a huge community support today. React Native is built on top of ReactJS which has given a huge competition to the long time favorite, AngularJS. Though there are some similarities and difference between ReactJS and React Native, which are mentioned below:

React Native is a framework that builds a hierarchy of UI components to build the JavaScript code. It has a set of components for both iOS and Android platforms to build a mobile application with native look and feel. ReactJS, on the other hand, is an open source JavaScript library to create user interfaces. However, both React Native and ReactJS are developed by Facebook using the same design principles, except designing interfaces.

Since it uses the same code for creating REACT Native iOS or the REACT Native Android apps and web applications, you just need to know the HTML, CSS and the JavaScript. Let’s take a look at the importance of the REACT Native Framework here!

Why is REACT Native Framework Important?

With React Native Framework, you can render UI for both iOS and Android platforms.

It is an open source framework, which could be compatible with other platforms like Windows or tvOS in the near future.

Since React Native components have the counterpart rights, you can reuse these components for building both Android and iOS apps.

You can either incorporate REACT Native components into the code of existing app or reuse the Cordova-based code with the help of the plugin as well. However, your existing app must be built with Cordova and Ionic code.

React Native Development is comparatively simple, quick and efficient.

React Native is a UI focused, which makes the apps load quickly and gives a smoother feel.

Another reason why the REACT Native framework has gained popularity in recent years is that the framework helps cater both the platforms at one go and ends the holy war of selecting either iOS or Android development for mobile developers. Hence, giant companies like Facebook, Instagram, Skype, Airbnb, Tesla, Walmart, Baidu Mobile, Bloomberg, UberEATS Vogue and many more have shifted their eyeballs towards it.

Moreover, using the React Native Framework fills the gap between focusing on a wide marketplace and making the profit. Since the number of iOS users is less as compared to Android users and yet produce more profit, many industries get into the dilemma of whether they should emphasis on making more profit by building iOS apps or building user strength via Android apps only.
